1984

Good Morning!
Looks like I need to resume reminding students to put electronic devices entirely away during class time.  I do not want to see them whatsoever while you are in class.  The exception is when I specifically give you permission to use your phone for accessing the internet for a class-related assignment.


Please read Part Three of 1984 over spring break. Record three parts for each chapter.  We will finish this novel the first week following spring break.

Relevant to the theme of the history of class inequality in 1984:
