  1. Right to Read • Imagine another person denying your right to read just as you were discovering the power of learning. • If you were enslaved and had no choice but to submit to your owner’s wishes, would you risk continuing your learning?

  2. Love and War • All’s Fair in Love and War: This phrase has been used to excuse everything from trivial lies to wide-scale atrocities. Do you think there are times when the rules of the game involve no rules at all?

  3. Topic: Extreme ActivitiesSome people enjoy pushing themselves to their limits through sports such as rock climbing and sky diving.What is an activity that is too extreme for you? What is an extreme sport/activity that you would consider trying?

  4. Life Changing Events • Often, life-changing events-a chance encounter with someone who becomes important in our lives, the loss of a loved one, a sudden move to a new place-sneak up on us unexpectedly. • Describe a time when this happened to you.

  5. Divorce Rate Trends Chopin’s “The Story of an Hour” • In 1900 the divorce rate was .7 percent. • In 2008 the divorce rate was 3.6 percent. • Why do you think this number has risen so dramatically over the years?

  6. Extended Time“An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge” • Have you ever experienced “bending of time” (moments seem extraordinarily long or drawn out; time seems to stand still)? • Think about times where you were very nervous or anxious for something to happen or times that contained extreme emotions.
