RATIONALE
I chose to do 1984 for this unit because I feel as though while it is a classic, there are many
things that relate to teenage students today. There are many themes in the book that deal specifically
on knowledge and truth. With teens, many of them feel like they are always told what to do and when
to do it and that's how this world of Oceania is shown. Studying a totalitarian world, students can see
that questioning things around them is okay and important to be informed members of society. There
are many instances of oppression in history and in our own society today; Nazi control, Chinese
censorship of the internet, and NSA spying in our own nation. Having students study the little things
that build up in a dystopian society in literature, they can see where some of these things are found
around them and learn to not just go with the flow and never question what is around them. By
studying Winston, they can connect that society isn't just collective, it starts on the level of the
individual.
I think this is important to incorporate dystopian literature into the classroom because it allows
students to think in a different way. This genre of novel is very original and brings about social
questions fitting in as well as questioning what is around you, much like what teenagers do or long to
do already. Giving them this outlet or opening their eyes to this other world that may have similar
underlying conflicts that they see in media or around them can help them think critically. Specifically,
incorporating 1984 in the classroom allows students to see and question a different world through the
eyes of someone being oppressed. 1984 is a questionable world that twists words and to analyze the
words and analyze from an outsiders perspective can help students think critically in the ELA
classroom and broader of situations outsider of school they don’t fully understand.
If for some reason a parent or an administrator asked why I thought this book should be
included into the curriculum I would say that while some of the content in this book is heavy and
controversial, but I think students are able handle the heaviness. Being able to analyze from an
outside perspective something like control or truth in the world can be connected with many different
aspects seen when studying English Language Arts. The connection of point of view of a character,
seeing and analyzing different literary devices seen in Dystopias and Late Modern British Literature,
allowing students to make connections to the real world, and lastly giving them the space to have

creative writing and give them the opportunity to have their own voice are all major commonalities in
ELA classrooms. This text has all of that and allows students a rich and challenging experience in my
classroom.
For my big question I have chosen, "How do you know?" because I feel as though it is very
open if I were to incorporate current events type of act ivities, it correlates well with Winston in 1984
trying to understand the world around him, but it also corresponds to the mindset of teens today.
How do they know they're doing the right thing? How do they know the truth around their choices?
How do they know the people around them have the same intentions? Creating students to question
things around them might seem strange, but empowering them now to question in a safe
environment can help them be more mindful citizens.

SUMMATIVE ASSESSMENT
Final Project Directions Sheet
Name: ______________________________________________ Date: _________________________ Period: ________
World Builder
For the final project, you are to create “a world” based on 1984 and dystopian literature
characteristics we cover in class. For this assignment you will be making 5 genres that are to
be put in a portfolio (e-portfolio or hardcopy are f ine). You must utilize at least 3
characteristics covered in your world.
For the genres, you must have 5 genres. One of the genres must be a longer journal entry
from a character from this world explaining an everyday life living in this world, common
rules, and how this world is a dystopia. You can show this as a journal entry, a blog, a letter to
another character, etc. The other required genre is a propaganda poster or a piece of
propaganda that you developed involving your world. Other genres could also include: a
map, a constitution/ laws, a song or poem of what it’s like living here, or different technology
used and is important in this world.
After you are done with your world, you will write a short 2 to 3 page paper explaining
connections between your world and the world of 1984. In this part of the paper, you are to
make connections using dystopian literature characteristics as well as make parallels betweenyour character and Winston. How would Winston respond to your world? You will also
explain how you developed your world in the paper drawing from the dystopian
characteristics we have covered as well as propaganda.
Checklist:
-
5 various genres
o 1 propaganda
o 1 journal/ blog/ diary/ stream of consciousness of a character
- Essay (2 to 3 pages)
o Connections between your world & Oceania
o
Explaining how Winston would respond to your worldo How your character would respond to Oceania
o Explanation of world development.

LESSON 1
Miss. Cary
1984 Unit Plan- “How do you know?” Studying truth
Grade 11
Standards:
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.11-12.2
- Determine two or more themes or central ideas of a text and analyze their
development over the course of the text, including how they interact and build on
one another to produce a complex account; provide an objective summary of the
text.
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.11-12.6
- Analyze a case in which grasping a point of view requires distinguishing what is
directly stated in a text from what is really meant
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.SL.11-12.1
-
Initiate and participate effectively in a range of collaborative discussions (one-on-
one, in groups, and teacher-led) with diverse partners on grades 11-12 topics, texts,
and issues, building on others' ideas and expressing their own clearly and
persuasively.
Objectives:
1.
Students will discuss persuasion using different prompts regarding truth from 1984 in
order to reflect on the mindset of dystopian worlds.
2.
Students will be able to describe a basic definition of truth in order to build on that
basic definition for later lessons.
Assessment:
Have the students journal on a ticket out the door activity sheet for each of them.
o
Pick one of the prompts:
Imagine you are in a world where the government is trying to control
truth. How would it feel living in this society?
Can you think of another example of this kind of society (from other
literature, movies, or a real world example)? How does it remind you of
that?

Accommodations Modifications:
Students with an IEP and or evaluated as having giftedness will be accommodated by…
(speech impediment): working in smaller groups before a larger discussion so
that way the student continues to be engaged with the lesson and has the
opportunity to contribute without being placed on the spot in front of everyone
(Gifted): These students may be given a harder ‘lie’ to act out for the class. Also
for the formative assessment maybe have them fill out both prompts to discuss
on for the next class.
Lesson Outline:
I.
Opening Activity (15-20 minutes)
a.
Split class into different groups and each will be given a prompt sheet of paper
i.
Students will individually reflect on these prompts and discuss in their
small group what they wrote
1.
Prompts will be from 1984 common phrases that are paradoxes
or other common statements from Oceania
a.
“Big Brother is Watching You”
b.
“War is Peace”
c.
“Slavery is Freedom”
d.
“Ignorance is Strength”
2.
Students will reflect on whether they would be persuaded by
these statements or messages if they were constantly aroundthem at school, work, or home.
3.
What is the meaning with the use of contradictions?
4.
Have students write why or why they wouldn’t be persuaded.
ii.
Larger class discussion
1.
What does it say about people that fear and believe this?
2.
How long would it take for these types of “Truth” to be
engrained in your head?
3.
This opening activity helps introduce very important key phrases
from Orwell’s 1984 and by analyzing them outside of the text,
students can see that this world is very twisted, much like
dystopian worlds.
II.
Activity (20 minutes total)
a.
“Seeing that this new world we are going to discover in this unit the questionof truth and lies come up”

b.
Have students remain in their small groups and give them different scenarios
of “truth telling” and “lying” have a student or two volunteer to act them out
and have a larger class discussion of when is this appropriate or not
appropriate
i.
Some examples can include:
1.
Your friend is late to a group meeting. You are annoyed but still
tell them, “It’s alright” even though you are still angry (5 minutes)
a.
This is a social lie- harmless
b.
Don’t tell them this until after they present
2.
You accidently knock over your dad’s favorite picture frame and
he asks who did it? You might lie and say someone else did it or
say you don’t know what happened. (5 minutes)
a.
Have students discuss which is “better” or which is“worse”?
3.
Without knowing you accidently gave someone the wrong
information (there was a group meeting at 6 and not 7). Did you
do something wrong? Do they have the right to be angry? (5
minutes)
ii.
Explain to students that there are different types of “lies” or “truths” and
that in the story we are going to cover, the world of Oceania bends
what is right to fit into their “truth” (5 minutes)
III.
Closing activity (5 minutes)
a.
Have students journal on a t icket out the door activity sheet for each of them.
i.
Some ideas they can journal on can include
1.
Imagine you are in a world where the government is trying to
control truth. How would it feel living in this society?b.
Homework for next class: Have students read the first chapter. Provide a free
youtube audio book for students to read along with. Students must journal
one way how the government in Oceania controls its people.

Accommodations Modifications:
Students with an IEP and/or evaluated as having giftedness will be accommodated by…
(Speech impediment): working in smaller groups before a larger discussion so
that way the student continues to be engaged with the lesson and has the
opportunity to contribute.
Also here I offer different activities that the student can be involved in (such as
coming up to the board) where the student doesn’t have to share if they don’t
feel comfortable.

LESSON 4
Miss Cary
1984 Unit Plan- “How do you know?” Studying Truth
Grade 11
Standards:
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.W.11-12.2.A
Introduce a topic; organize complex ideas, concepts, and information so that each
new element builds on that which precedes it to create a unified whole; include
formatting (e.g., headings), graphics (e.g., figures, tables), and multimedia when useful
to aiding comprehension. CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.W.11-12.10
Write routinely over extended time frames (time for research, reflection, and revision)
and shorter time frames (a single sitting or a day or two) for a range of tasks,
purposes, and audiences.
Objectives
1.
Students will be able to reflect on the characteristics of dystopian literature found in
pop culture using a web quest in order to connect these characteristics to 1984
2.
Using a worksheet, students will respond to questions regarding dystopian literature in
order to create their own world later on in the unit.
Assessment:
Teacher will circulate during the webquest to make sure students are on task with
their graphic organizer. Seeing the graphic organizer as you are circulating being
filled in and assessment can be based off of the discussion after the students
complete the first three steps.

Accommodations Modifications:
Students with an IEP and or evaluated as having giftedness will be accommodated by…
(Speech impediment): Also the Webquest allows the student to work quietly if
they wish but also having smaller groups helps the student feel more
comfortable sharing.
Also in this lesson when asking larger group opinion based questions, allow the
student more time to collect their thoughts or if they do speak in the larger
discussion so they don’t feel rushed. .
(Gifted): Have prepared similar slides from the first three steps that will reinforce
the main message or theme from these slides.
Materials
Laptops
Worksheets
Lesson:
I.
Webquest (40 minutes)
a.
Explain to the students that they will be taking part in a webquest to go over
the different characteristics of dystopia
b.
Have students log into the computers
i.
Go over the basic layout of the webquest and the hyperlinks.
c.
Have students pair up with a partner for the webquest to discuss differentsections of their individual responses.
i.
Once everyone gets passed “step three” of the webquest have a larger

new element builds on that which precedes it to create a unified whole; include
formatting (e.g., headings), graphics (e.g., figures, tables), and multimedia when useful
to aiding comprehension.
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.W.11-12.10
Write routinely over extended time frames (time for research, reflection, and revision)
and shorter time frames (a single sitting or a day or two) for a range of tasks,
purposes, and audiences.
Objectives
1.
Students will be able to reflect on the characteristics of dystopian literature found in
pop culture using a web quest in order to connect these characteristics to 1984
