BELLRINGER 1. Turn in the reflection of the Dresden images that you viewed over the weekend. 2. Complete your “Did I Read the Book?” quiz. 3. Copy down the page references. 4. Anticipate answers to the discussion questions.

The Bombing of Dresden We will examine a few photographs taken both before and after the bombing of Dresden. Be forewarned: some of the images may be disturbing.

Dresden before the bombing:

Dresden after the bombing…

Reflection After seeing the “before” and “after” images of Dresden, how might your opinion of the novel or the characterization of Kurt Vonnegut change? Explain your answer.

Slaughterhouse-Five Comprehension Questions: Answer on a separate sheet of paper. Use PQA (Put the Question in the Answer). Be as specific as possible – Use QUOTES. 1. Why might Billy be attracted to the Tralfamadorian belief about death (p )? 2. How does Billy’s occupation parallel Tralfamadorian philosophy (p )? 3. Describe Weary. How does he—as a character—support or refute Vonnegut’s argument about war?

Important text to examine: Major themes, quotes, and questions coming up… - page 53 – the corporal’s boots - page 61 – crying - page 67 – “I” - page 73 – “mustard gas and roses” - page 75 – Hitler, Adam and Eve

More important text to examine:  page 86 – free will (Tralfamadorians)  page 87 – allusion to Valley of the Dolls  page 91 – listed as dead  page 96 – soap and candles. So it goes.  page 101 – new lies (Rosewater)  page – epitaph (Vonnegut)

HOMEWORK  Complete the three discussion questions for homework. You MUST use quotations in your responses.  Be sure to cite your quotations using MLA style: ( Vonnegut 26) / (Author’s name page number).
