Harrison Bergeron

Today - I'm going to try and get you access to the on-line textbook.

Besides that, here are your assignments:

New Vocabulary List

Consternation
Cower
Neutralize
Synchronize
Vigilance
Wince
Manipulate
Oblivious
Paranoia
Silhouette
Sublime
Tremulous

Look up the words above post a definition and part of speech on your blog.

Do page 46 in your textbook.  If I get you on-line explore the on-line textbook and the Harrison Bergeron links.

HW: Write a sequel to Harrison Bergeron.  The choice of the sequel is up to you, but you can discuss the parents' reaction when they are informed of Harrison's death, or take the point of view of one of the ballerinas or either write a sequel from the point of view of the Diana Moon Glampers, the Handicapper General.  Remember this world is a negative-utopia.
