What basic human right is being denied 201000039 https://padlet.com/201000039/qrq8gr04j11y/wish/216347862 What makes this an unjust society, is that Theo wasn't allowed to choose which "career" he wanted, since the Authorities and the Decider chose it for him. The basic human right of freedom, and being able to choose what you want to do, are being denied, since Theo wasn't allowed to choose what his "career" would turn out to be. ]]> 2017-12-14 22:06:57 UTC https://padlet.com/201000039/qrq8gr04j11y/wish/216347862 Characters 201000039 https://padlet.com/201000039/qrq8gr04j11y/wish/216347863 The characters are Theo, Neema, the Authorities, and the Decider.

I watched as my dad flew over the Parthenon of Athens Greece and opened his huge mouth. Flames burst out of it and engulfed the Parthenon in flames. People ran out of the Parthenon screaming as it was slowly being destroyed. I flew down towards some kids who looked lost. But as I got closer, they took one look at me and ran away yelling "DRAGON!! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!" I glanced around to see if anybody heard. Thankfully no one was around, because they were all running to safety. I hid behind the last few bits of the burning Parthenon and quickly transformed into my human form. I expected people to scream and run from me when I came out, but they all were just trying to rush everybody to safety. I wondered why everybody was so afraid of me in my dragon form. I literally was trying to help out that group of kids back there! Life can be so unfair when your a dragon. I thought to myself. My dad was still flying around the Parthenon when he first spotted me in my human form. I watched as his mouth curled up into a menacing smile. "I'm coming for you little human!" he said, diving towards me. I laughed as he got closer and closer until he swerved to dodge my half-hearted punch at his huge head. ]]> 2017-12-14 22:06:57 UTC https://padlet.com/201000039/qrq8gr04j11y/wish/216347867 Due Dates 201000039 https://padlet.com/201000039/qrq8gr04j11y/wish/216347868 This will be updated as we continue the process.
