**Lesson Plans**
Journal Prompt: //How does a "civilized" person behave? Look like? What about a "savage" person?//

Read this article about the history of Paintball

Questions for a class discussion:
 * //What would drive someone to "hunt" another person?//
 * //The type of people who originally came up with Paintball were wide ranging (a stock broker, film producer, farmer, author). Does this match up with your perceptions from our journal prompt today?//
 * //What does the popularity of Paintball today say about the nature of the sport and ourselves?//

Begin reading "The Most Dangerous Game."

Students begin their "Twitter" journal.
 * As students are reading, they will keep a notebook to log their thoughts on the story. These thoughts will be called "tweets" as they should keep them to 140 characters or less. These tweets should focus on students' impressions of the characters, predictions as to what will happen next, questions they have, their feelings in general to the story (positive or negative), etc.The journal is meant for them to keep track of their running internal dialogue as they read and as a source they can look back at during any discussions or writings they engage in.

Closing
 * As students leave, their ticket-out-the-door will be their initial impressions of Rainsford and General Zaroff on an index card.
