G-BAND: SLAUGHTERHOUSE FIVE P. 107-END OF CHAPTER 5

 For tonight's blog, please choose a line from the text, quote it (with the page number), and then ask a question based off of this line. AUTHENTIC QUESTIONS ARE GOOD! IN OTHER WORDS, IT'S OKAY TO START A POST WITH, "THIS LINE CONFUSED ME..."

Then, try to answer your own question. Dig deep. Perhaps try out a couple of potential answers. Perhaps, in your answer, provide/connect your analysis to an idea of a piece of textual evidence from earlier in the novel, or a short story we've read. DO NOT REPEAT SOMEONE ELSE'S QUOTATION/IDEA. MAKE SURE THAT THE LINE IS FROM PP. 107-137.

 YOU MUST ALSO RESPOND TO A CLASSMATE'S QUESTION. Agree or disagree, but make sure that you add something new-- a new idea, a reference to another part of the book. Include textual evidence as you push the conversation forward.

Answer:

G-BAND: SLAUGHTERHOUSE FIVE PP. 87-107

For tonight's blog, please choose a line from the text, quote it (with the page number), and then ask a question based off of this line. What does the line mean? What does it say about war/the effects of war? What could characters, moments or details represent/signify on a larger scale? What is Vonnegut saying about consumerism, religion, social activism vs. apathy or innocence and their relationship to war? How is life on Tralfamadore like war?

Then, try to answer your own question. Dig deep. Perhaps try out a couple of potential answers. Perhaps, in your answer, provide/connect your analysis to an idea of a piece of textual evidence from earlier in the novel. It's okay if you don't know the answer. Points of confusion get us thinking.
