Fahrenheit 451 project!
1. Powerpoint presentation-
(1-2 per group) Find images, objects or people in Fahrenheit 451, and then identify a parallel to them in our lives today. For example, you may say the green seashell is like a bluetooth, or the average American voter is like Mildred. Explain how these work as parallels. Create a powerpoint presentation displaying this. This presentation must have at least ten parallels.
(1 person) Make a Powerpoint presentation with six pie charts of selected characters in Fahrenheit 451, and divide them up by the emotions they feel throughout the novel. Include at least 425 words (1 ½ pages) explaining why they are divided in that way.
2. Rewrite Fahrenheit 451 with you as the protagonist living in modern times, not the future. You may present this to the class as-
(1-4 per group) A Film. Film must be at least four minutes in length and must include a script.
(1-4 per group) A play. Film must be at least four minutes in length and must include a script.
(1 person) A written short story. Must be at least 750 words (three pages). Be prepared to read it to the class.
3. Find or write a song:
(1 person if finding a song, 1-3 people if writing a song) Find or write a song that depicts the mood of Fahrenheit 451. Include an explanation of at least 250 words to tell why you thought this song worked. You must have a means to present this song to the class. Discuss with me if you want help.
