JOURNAL TOPIC:

They say you can't tell a book by its cover, but you can definitely get some clues. Based on the cover, what do you predict will happen in Fahrenheit 451? What do you think the theme/main message of the book will be?

AGENDA:

1. Journal

2. Vocab review (list on blog)

3. Read chapter 1 (reader's choice: quietly or with class) 

4. Summarize the plot and describe (with examples you can remember) how Bradbury changes his syntax when he's describing scenery, Montag, or dialogue.

5. Character analysis: list each character in the book as you meet him/her. Make three columns and take notes in each of these categories 

HW:

1. Complete notes and post to your course blog (title: FAHRENHEIT 451 FIRST IMPRESSIONS)

2. Study vocab for 15 minutes
