For your first blog post on the novel 1984, consider the theme of temptation. Because Winston lives in a world controlled completely by an oppressive government, he is often going to be tempted to break rules, norms, and laws. But why? And how are people tempted nowadays? And why do we experience temptation? We don't live in a world like Oceania, do we? Choose something that you think is a common temptation in our society as your topic (and title of your blog post) and write a paragraph comparing that temptation to what Winston experiences in 1984.*A strong paragraph is typically 4-6 sentences and should include specifics and detail.
*Make sure to start off your blog entry with a quote (with page number in parentheses)!
*Include a picture related to your topic of temptation - ask me if you don't know how.
*At the end of your post, ask two open-ended questions about your topic and/or anything from the book that you may have mentioned in your post.
*Put your initials in the "Labels" section of your post so I know you wrote it!
