Day 54!

1.Why is Faber so discouraged about changing society for the better even if a war wipes out the current culture in their country?

2. Why does Montag not heed Faber’s warnings and instead confronts the women in his house with a reading of “Dover Beach”?

3. When Montag returns to the firehouse for work, he is divided. What are the divisions within himself that he experiences?

4. The Captain recounts his dream in which he defeats Montag’s argument for the importance of books. Choose one of the Captain’s quotes that directly argues against the power of books and explain what the quote means.


5. How does Montag feel about himself as he rides the fire truck with the other men to burn more books?

6. How do you think the book is going to end?


Throughout the second half of "The Sieve and the Sand" we see everything that Montag is doing, but we never really get to see what he is feeling in his head. Review the second part of this chapter and think about what Montag is probably feeling and thinking. Then, create a 6 word memoir that you feel expresses everything that Montag is feeling, be sure to also include graphics and pictures that portray his point of view and emotions. 

Below you will find some examples of 6 Word Memoirs. Be sure that you include graphics or pictures with yours; be creative!
