Seashell

sometimes it's good to just go with the flow of things and jump in with no hesitation without being rash. The winds bring in debris to the shore, mostly random things, but occasionally a beautiful seashell. People will come and go in our lives, but some stand out and stick around. I like to picture them like seashells, they’re intricate, unique, and worth keeping. As the sun shines above creating heat and light for the creatures below, it’s almost like the sun looks after them. As I looked into…

contaminated by harmful cations. Due to this environmental issue, different water filtration strategies must be used. One involves using seashells which causes these cations to precipitate as solids and to be easily filtered through different filters. This relates to our lab, because we tested different ways to filter Calcium Hydroxide to see which would be more helpful. This seashell technique helps make filtering much…

In F451, the widespread use of TV parlors and seashell radios give the government two great ways of controlling their citizens. The spread of TV parlors, and more importantly, the profuse amount of useless information it entrances and entraps the viewer with, gives the government easy-to-control people…

(AGG) People thought technology was a good thing, but too much of it can be very bad. (BS-1)All that technology can really change a person and make them view things differently than they did before. (BS-2)Many can get too distracted and lose sight of the important things in their lives. (BS-3) the people that leave and get away from all the technology learn how to digest all the information without getting distracted and really change the way they view the world. (TS) In the book Fahrenheit 451…

Aphrodite because she is naked and she is wrapping herself in a cloth. The statuette is missing its head and arm, but I knew it was Aphrodite because of its nudity. Aphrodite is the goddess of love, beauty, and pleasure. Her other attributes are seashells, doves, mirrors, Cupid, swans, jewelry, and apples. One myth about that shows the power Aphrodite is Pygmalion. In Ovid’s Metamorphoses, he tells the story of how Aphrodite is infuriated with the women of Cyprus since they did not worship her.…

society. Bradbury is demonstrating a miserable tone as he is sorrowful how society is “antisocial.” The citizens of Montag’s society are closed off from the literary world. Rather than read books, the citizens are obsessed with the parlor walls and seashells. Through the use of words, such as darkness and no sound, Bradbury demonstrated the tone of misery. Ray Bradbury’s employment of literary devices, such as figurative language and diction, led to the discovery of the miserable…

1. APK: Review double-digit addition with renaming. Have students recall strategies they used to find the sum of double-digit addition problems (place value, empty number line, break apart). Ask student, “Do you think we could use some of these same strategies to find the sum of three-digit numbers?” “Today, we are going to use those same strategies to solve three-digit addition problems.” 2. Objective/EQ: During math today, we are going to play a game that includes adding two three-digit…

As technology increases, humanity decreases. When there is more technology, people began to lose their humanity like in Fahrenheit 451. In Fahrenheit451, Ray Bradbury, the author uses characterization to display humanity and technology. Montag and the mechanical hound don’t get along.’’ The mechanical hound leapt up in its kennel, its eyes all green flame.’’(Bradbury 32) Montag thinks someone set the hound to his scent or to watch him. The hound seems to watch him when he isn’t paying attention.…

Bedstraw spat out the hobnob. Oats, oats, disgusting oats! How could anyone eat a biscuit made from oats, when there were plenty more to choose from in the larder, like custard creams, or even a wafer. But hobnobs? They tasted like baked porridge, cold and hard, with bitty bits of oats which he found hard chew with his gums. After all, he was only six months old and he had no teeth. When he sank back in the deep, soft cushion, he screwed up his face, pinched his nose, held on to his nappy for…

Society has been altered tremendously from the time period that Fahrenheit 451 and Anthem were published to present day. Ayn Rand and Ray Bradbury provide predictions of the future of how they thought society would develop. Evidence from both novels suggests that corruption and immorality have affected society immensely causing it to fall into the trap of the authors’ warnings. It is astonishing to think that these prophetic authors were correct in many ways. Fahrenheit 451 shows similarities…
