February 4

JOURNAL TOPIC: (today's tunes: "Monday Night Football" ("Superstar" A.K.A. "Heavy Action") by Johnny Pearson; "ABC's Wide World of Sports" by Jack Shaindlin & Irving Robbins; "TV Party" by Black Flag)

Yesterday Americans celebrated an unofficial national holiday by eating 30 million pounds of snacks and sitting around the house.  Why?  What is it about the Superb Owl that everyone finds so compelling?  Do we watch because everyone else is, or because we all did it last year, or because...?  Choose an author who wrote about the (dystopian or utopian) future and imagine how s/he would answer the question.

AGENDA:
1. Journal
2. Lit terms
3. Cooperative literature analyses: Dickens

HW:
1. Finish lit terms & post/remix under title "LIT TERMS 51-80"
2. Post "DICKENS CLAQs"
2. Writing under pressure
