WELCOME! Join me for an adventure in learning ✨️ 

🐖 Welcome to an exhilarating high school-level journey through George Orwell's timeless masterpiece, Animal Farm! In this imaginative world, farm animals rise up to overthrow their human oppressors and take control of the farm. As we dive into the thrilling events of the Russian Revolution and explore their modern-day relevance, we’ll ask: Will all the animals share in the newfound freedom, or will some elite pigs seize power? 🫏 Are the animals truly liberated, or does a new form of tyranny take hold? Through this gripping tale, we’ll blend Language Arts and Social Studies, delving into themes like inclusivity, equality, sociology, and history. Your teen will have the opportunity to compare and contrast the story with current events and modern society in the USA and around the world. 🌍📚

🤔 Picture this: a farm filled with overworked and mistreated animals, fueled by fiery idealism and passionate slogans as they strive to build a utopia of progress, justice, and equality. But as the story unfolds, we witness one of the most satirical fables ever written—a sharp, thought-provoking fairy tale that reveals the darker side of revolution and the rise of totalitarianism. 🐴 What fate awaits these animals? How do humans influence their journey? Just how clever are those pigs? And what does revolution truly mean? These are just some of the compelling questions we’ll explore as we read and analyze this captivating story together.

Throughout this course, your teen will immerse themselves in the pages of Animal Farm, tackling three to four chapters per lesson, over a total of 10 chapters. 📝📖 But don’t expect a typical classroom experience—my class is packed with excitement and creativity! Your teen will enjoy engaging chapter introductions via pre-recorded videos from me, complete thought-provoking chapter assignments, and unleash their imagination with creative Canva projects, such as animated slideshows (for self-paced users). 🎨✨

We’ll discuss how Orwell uses the characters and events on the farm to represent the real-world struggles and power dynamics that occurred during the Russian Revolution, and how these themes continue to resonate today. This unique blend of literature and social studies will not only help your teen understand the historical context of the novel but also encourage them to think critically about current societal issues. 🔍💡

In the assignments and asynchronous student-teacher discussions, we’ll also explore the complex symbolism in Animal Farm and how Orwell cleverly critiques the corruption of revolutionary ideals. From the hardworking Boxer the horse to the manipulative Napoleon the pig, each character embodies different aspects of human nature and political ideology. 🐷 Your teen will be encouraged to analyze these characters, draw parallels to historical figures, and consider how the lessons from this allegory apply to the modern world. 🌏

As we progress through the book, we’ll use a variety of interactive tools and activities to bring the story to life. Each lesson is designed to foster creativity and deeper understanding, from analyzing key quotes and symbols to debating the ethical dilemmas faced by the animals. The assignment will be dynamic and inclusive, ensuring that your teen has a chance to voice their opinions and insights. 💬✨

By the end of this course, your teen will not only have a thorough understanding of Animal Farm but will also gain valuable skills in critical thinking, literary analysis, and historical context. They’ll leave the class with a deeper appreciation for the power of literature to reflect and challenge societal norms and with the tools to engage thoughtfully with the world around them. 🌟📚
