Welcome Back!

I hope that you all had a great break. With the term ending soon, we need to return, recharged, and ready to end on a high note.

Brit Lit:

Today in class, we imagined a futuristic world.  In class, I had you write a one page description of what the world would be like in the year 2049.  I asked you to ponder the following questions:
What will tech allow us to do?
What world conflicts will there be?
Is it a dark future (WALL-E), or a perfect world (Meet the Robinson's)

If you were missing, please finish this for HW tonight.
