The CDC has a Zombie Preparedness website; it attracted so much attention when it first posted that the website crashed. This is the main website.
I want you to read the comic novella posted here.
Regular: Go to the blog post for periods 2 & 5 and answer the questions there AFTER reading the comic novella. Additionally, on the bottom of the Pride & Prejudice & Zombies handout, answer these questions: 1. What can you tell about Mr. Bennet's personality from the chapter? 2. What can you tell about Mrs. Bennet's personality from the chapter? 3. What is Mr. Bennet most concerned with? 4. What is Mrs. Bennet most concerned with? 5. What do we learn about these zombies from this chapter? (Your answers can be in pencil or pen -- please write them in sentences. If you're more comfortable, you can answer them on a separate paper.)
Honors: You will then answer three questions in a blog post. No late blog posts accepted as your blog posts will help drive our class discussion.
