Day 1 LORD OF THE FLIES (LOTF)

Do Now: During our Lord of the Flies unit, we will discuss a number of big ideas, including good and evil. To have a meaningful discussion of this big idea, we will need to agree upon what those terms mean. In your own words, please write down a definition of evil.

Today's Learning Target:

I will be able to define good and evil and apply these definitions to some sample situations.

I will know that I have hit the learning target when...
-I can record the definitions of good and evil in my notes for English class.
-I can discuss how certain situations are or are not examples of evil.

Agenda: 

1. Defining Good and Evil
2. What makes good people turn evil?
3. Exit ticket: did your view of what is good/evil change after our discussion?

Homework: the final draft of the vignette is due Friday; in addition to revising your vignette, please work on your outside reading project (due 30 October)
