Inferencing | PostSecrets
Description In November 2004, Frank Warren printed 3,000 postcards inviting people to share a secret: something that was true, something they had never told anyone. No two secrets are identical, but every secret has a story behind it. Directions We have discovered in the novel Feed by M.T. Anderson that the feed has great control over the characters’ lives; it tells them how to dress, what music to listen to, how to speak, what is cool. Despite the character’s great reliance on the feed, we can also assume they have secrets with stories behind them. For example, it was recently revealed to us as the readers that there is a great chance that the feed is literally killing Violet, a secret she kept from Titus for several weeks. Construct a secret from the perspective of a character in Feed. Some of the characters you may choose from include:

Bookmarks Today we will begin the reading process. The first reading task are the assigned chapters listed below (roughly 20 pages each). For each set of reading assigned, you will complete a bookmark. These bookmarks can be found on the bookshelf in the white slidder bin if you desire to read ahead in the novel (which is always encouraged!). We are going to spend some time reading in class today; HOWEVER, this will not be the norm. You are EXPECTED to read for at least 20 minutes every night as home learning. Characterization: Characterization is the analysis of characters in a novel. We analyze characters to understand humans, to understand ourselves. There are numerous ways to analyze characters. Each group will consider one of these ways. First, create a visual symbol that represents this type of characterization. Second, make a statement about why we study this component of characterization. What does it help us understand about the character? Select one representative of your group to record the symbol and statement on the Characterization sheet. Select one representative to verbally explain your symbol and statement to the rest of class.
