Senior Panels and Frankenstein

I will post up the DISCUSSION TWO on Turnitin today. Now we look at things from the monster's point of view.We explore the creature's fears, insecurities, and desires throughout his narrative. Does he have a right to demand a companion? What implications would that put on Frankenstein and the rest of society? What would you do if the creature? If Frankenstein?


  I WAS A POOR, HELPLESS MISERABLE WRETCH; I KNEW, AND COULD DISTINGUISH, NOTING; BUT FEELING PAIN INVADE ME ON ALL SIDES, I SAT DOWN AND WEPT. - CHAPTER 11


Good Luck on Panels today and tomorrow!  Be ready for an open-book quiz on the novel on Friday.

Mentor letter two is due tomorrow. You can download it from the Washougal web page : MENTOR LETTER 
Posters should be up in the halls by tomorrow, and you will need to check off the item on your portfolio. Next deadline: May 23rd for project summary. Overall, we need to improve our representation of research and our conclusions.

Frankenstein is a man of intellect and emotion. What molds him into the young student with controversial ideas? Is he a deviant or a saint with good intentions???? Does this justify his actions? Decide how prideful/humble Victor is, and how much of an impact his surroundings play in his life at this point.  Discussion will be posted on Friday and due on Monday. Turnitin link is located at top of page along with the Frankenstein mp3.

Everything he did, he did for his family
So...Is Walton going to be any more ambitious than he already is?  Look at his letters. He can be so tender, yet at the same time, so driven.
When the captain gathers up his self-doubts, his passions, and his dreams, keep in mind, much like Taming of the Shrew, that this is a play-within-a-play. Frankenstein is going to try and prevent Walton from making the same mistakes as he did.
