Pigs Rule

Today we had a short quiz on chapter 9, talked about chapters 8 and 9, and finished the book aloud in class. We then got started on some end-of the book questions (below) which should be finished for HW.

These questions should be answered in complete paragraphs and contain SPECIFIC examples (even quotations) from the text.

1. Discuss your response to the last chapter. Identify specific sections or events and explain how you reacted to them and why you reacted in those ways.
2. Explain how the following quotations fit in with the ideas and characters in Animal Farm

• a) "Those who cannot learn from history are doomed to repeat it." ~George Santayana
• b) "Power tends to corrupt; absolute power corrupts absolutely." ~Lord Acton
