Science Fiction is an extremely important genre. If you think about it, Star Trek introduced the idea of a cell phone with it's groundbreaking show in 1963. Lucky for you, I've been kind enough to give you access to a brief power point on Science Fiction and a great video that discusses the importance of the genre. I highly recommend that you look over the power point and watch the video before you begin reading Dune.

I am so glad that each of you have decided to join us in a journey of enlightenment and fun. Get ready for a very busy year, full of lots of discussions (mind bending at times), reading, and writing. We ask only that you come with an open mind and the ability to clearly express yourselves. Keep your eyes on this blog page for discussion questions for both of the summer reading books. We just know that you'll love both of them. Here's to a great senior year for all of you. Let's start off with some frequently asked questions that we get every year at the beginning of the summer. 1. Do we have to read all of Dune or just the part called Dune? You will read all of Dune; part I: Dune, part II: Muad'dib, and part III: The Prophet. 2. When will the blogs be posted? A new blog will appear every Sunday and they will start on June 14th. |
