Today on this red Wednesday, English 12 discussed war atrocities we have read about in the book and also others in Vietnam history such as the My Lai Massacre. We had a really good discussion on how war changes the rules of normally accepted behavior, and how this is also seen in sports as well. The class was divided up in groups and each given an atrocity in the book or real life to read over and discuss, then share out with the class. I was fairly pleased with how well the classes did with this.
For creative writing, I gave the a writing day to work on their short stories as they are beginning to panic a little bit. They don't know panic yet.
