Brit. Lit:

Today:

Journal prompt:  Please devise a made up character that co-exists with other characters in 1984.  Please write a secret diary for this character that revels their thoughts on the events in the novel so far.     1 page

We looked at all of the new terms in the novel and I gave you a sheet explaining these.  Please use this as a resource for you as you read.

I gave you copies on today's WSJ.  I asked you to find an article and re-write it using newspeak.

We discussed language and why is it important to have description.

I showed you the 1984 Apple commercial:
