We see an example of a Dystopian story line in the show dope sick.

apollak25 — 2022-09-14 13:12:30 UTC

the divergent series is an example of dystopias and utopias; the show arcane also is.

apollak25 — 2022-09-14 13:16:20 UTC

color: swirls of all sorts of colors, with a white spot in the middle standing out against it to represent the central/main idea.

symbol: a circle with a dot in the center.

The Hunger Games is an example of a dystopia.

Lucas

2022-09-14 13:23:43 UTC

Color: Blue makes me think of the central idea

Symbol: a swirl because sometimes the main idea is complicated

Image: a image of a book

apollak25 — 2022-09-14 13:25:37 UTC

words/ideas : focus, main idea, plan

questions: how should you find the main idea? how many ways can you find a main idea?

metaphor/simile: big idea

An idea of theme is the perpetual constant of the story depending on the story and what it chooses will be the one thing that is more and more prevalent which could be of any word or idea like for most dystopian films and stories usually a theme is corporate corruption it is the biggest issue in the world of were human progression was used for profits and dichotomy of the world, or stories were racism is the core front a constant event of we’re systemic racism harms an individual from growing in reality by using we’re they come from or whom they live or associate with. Another good theme would be in places were violence or survival is the theme like books such as hatchet or to build a fire by jack London these two books show how ruthless the wilderness can be with hatchet and the main character having to survive the wild dealing with starvation dehydration learning how to survive and thrive in an unforgiving world unlike How to build a fire in which that book focuses on the theme of how freezing cold snow easily hurts and attacks us as humans it’s main character dies after many tries at survival being forced to do what he needs for survival in a unforgiving environment he cannot thrive because the wilderness cannot accept him.

This is for 3 words or ideas

Lucas

2022-09-14 13:29:05 UTC

Words: Emotions, Challenges, Idea

Questions: What if these strategies don’t work? Can there be more than one main idea

Simile: Main ideas are like unicorns hard to find at times.

juarango26 — 2022-09-14 13:35:00 UTC

What themes are we able to explore more so in the book the giver and what are we going to have to accomplish to find themes in this class?

juarango26 — 2022-09-14 13:45:28 UTC

A simple viewing in our existence to in which we have no idea on how change must be done in search of our reasoning and meaning will be our doom it’s as such as a hungry snake eating it’s self and suffocate in our own ignorance

Charlie

Star Wars is an example of a dystopia

2022-09-19 15:23:47 UTC

Cobra Kia has a dystopia cause of all the fights and and really bad back ground

James

jragusa25 — 2022-09-19 16:44:02 UTC

To me the hunger games because most of it is

I feel like stranger things is an example of dystopia

jragusa25 — 2022-09-20 13:04:29 UTC

I feel like it’s a summary/ definitions of all the terms, words, and ideas used when you read

Cause we talk about summary we talk about central ideas, etc

Justin

Resurfacing
Responsibility
Stress

What does it mean by when it says the object, idea, or responsibility may cause tension or stress?

What does it mean by track ideas that keep resurfacing?

Simile: main idea are like fish they are hard to find/catch sometimes

To sum up everything I read the theme is a big group of conflicts, characters, and feelings. It’s basically what the writer is trying to make the reader feel or think

Marcus

2022-09-20 16:26:39 UTC

Batman specifically Gotham city is a dystopia because of all the crime and villains and disorder

Marcus

2022-09-20 16:28:28 UTC

Color: yellow
Symbol: circle
Picture: mountains

Theme is what something is about. I think “The Giver” is about conflict, unfairness, controlling, war, etc. An example of a theme is everything is not always what it seems.

Response

2022-09-21 14:53:01 UTC

To summarize everything I read in my own words they want you to feel and think and watch how the characters develop through out the story

2022-09-23 15:17:11 UTC

I chose a apple cause central idea teaches you something and a teacher teaches and when I hear the word teacher I think of a apple

color: black

2022-09-23 15:20:39 UTC

some people are racist and sayong people of this color don't belong here and some people think it doesn't matter what your skin color is cause everyone should be treated equal.
this is an example of a central idea that you could learn

Taylor

Color:red
Symbol:diamond

jragusa25 — 2022-10-11 14:07:17 UTC

Red as the color because I feel like it’s just a popular and when I wear it I think of myself as central idea

When I think of a sports logo: for the same reason (symbol)

Probably an electronic device since when I use them I’m happy

Emma

3 words: content, main idea, motive
2 questions: what is the author trying to get across? How do you approach the main idea?
Metaphor: the main idea is like the plot of a tv show

Emma

 A dystopia can be Fahrenheit 451 because it takes place in a totalitarian state and deals with great suffering and injustice and a utopian movie can be black panther because Wakanda  is an imagined place where everything is perfect.

Emma

2022-10-24 14:27:39 UTC

A color that represents the essence of a central idea is yellow

The symobol that bests represnts the essence of a central idea is *
The picture that best represents a main idea is a mountain top

Keep track of ideas and themes that are recurring throughout a story (*'▽'*) ！

Pay close attention to character tension / stress . Whether it be between characters or one character having tension with themself ∑(ﾟДﾟ) ！

Track story conflict , through annotations or notes ! Make sure to note where the conflict is coming from (´∀｀*) ！

||===========☆===========||

What did you feel during the story ? How so ?

Does this character have any desires or motivations ? What are they ?

“ A story is stage , and it’s characters are actors “

As was stated in the video , there is a very fine line between UTOPIA and DYSTOPIA . A line that a lot of people don’t. Realize is there . At time where everything might seem perfect , like in the giver , there is little to no room for imperfection . In the giver it doesn’t broaden on other communities being affected by the “ organized “ and “ meticulous “ rules that are in place . What about queer people ? People of of color ? People who have life altering imperative disorders / illnesses . People who struggle with mental illness ? What about mood altering disorders ? There’s a lot to consider when looking into the worlds that we read about .

[[ Color : ]]
Bright Red . It’s a color that !screams! Central idea . A color that immediately catches your eye and doesn’t let go of it . A central idea is what a story is all about , something that you can’t let go or forget !

[[ image : ]]
A Ditch is something you can’t essentially get out of , not easily . A central idea is the same way ! You can’t go around it over or under . There’s no way of avoiding it !

[[ symbol : ]]

Arrows pointing to the middle of and image ? I don’t really know how to explain it , but I’ll try (T-T) . Many ideas coming together to make one point . Often assimilating into one big idea .
