How did the change in these elements effect you as a viewer? Why would the author/ director want to do that?
This will projected straight on the board and students will add the info from their WS.

4. Utopia vs Dystopia
Here is where I would introduce the def. of Utopia and Dystopia – I may or may not write these on the board. Again we are looking at colors are symbols and analyzing mood to figure out the differences.
Look at your notes on the videos; which was which? What predictions can you make about the things we will be reading?

5. Turn your WS over!
Let’s think about author’s purpose – if you were going to write a story about a society that tried so hard to become perfect that they became evil; what would your message be? What modern day events do you think stories like this relate to?

Try to do as much of this sheet without looking at your notes as possible BUT when you get stuck look there for the answer first!!

17. Allegory
Allegory is a figurative mode of representation conveying meaning other than the literal. Allegory communicates its message by means of symbolic figures, actions or symbolic representation. What does all that mean?

18. Allegory
An allegory tells us one story while really telling us another. Think of The Pedestrian – we read about a man walking down the road but was that REALLY what Bradbury meant? Try and think of a few other stories that have another story hidden inside!

19. Peace of the Wild Things
Open you book to pg 410. What is this poem about? How does it relate to anything else we have read? Think about what an allegory is- what could possibly be hidden here.
