  3. The Value of Life • Your job is to respond to each question in 3-4 sentences. • Your first sentence should be a clear sentence explaining your view on the given topic without using the word “I”.

  4. The Value of Life 1. What is the purpose of life here on earth? 2. Why do people have a positive or a negative view on life? 3. Does everyone have the same value of life; if not, then what impacts a persons value of life? 4. Is it fair to put a price tag on someone’s life? 5. What type of company would put a price tag on a person’s life? Why would they do this? 6. Is the life of a wealthy business person worth more than a custodian? 7. Is a convicted felon equal in value to a free person? 8. Is an unborn child equal in value to a newborn child? 9. Is the death penalty right or wrong? 10. Excluding extreme circumstances (rape, mother’s life in danger), is abortion right or wrong?

  5. Hamlet’s soliloquy • When you are done with your responses please put them on the front table. • Find “Hamlet’s Soliloquy” in your ERWC books. • Read it very slowly and try to figure out what Hamlet’s “value of life” is. • Hint: In line one “be” = exist • After you finish reading it, you will need to translate each line of the speech into modern day English.

  9. Company Brochure You will now design your own brochure advertising the company you came up with yesterday. On the first flap you will have the name of your company and a picture of your company’s logo On the second side you will have your company’s slogan, a description of your company and why it’s important to the community. On the third side you will have a list of the products that you sell and the price of each item. On the last side you will have the company name, address, phone number, and email address. You will also have a clever picture that you believe will represent your company. On the second and third slide you will need a border that makes your page look nice. I’m looking for color and creativity in all pictures that are used in this brochure.
