The speeches are going very well indeed. Well done to everyone who has spoken so far. I feel that the 'antiques raodshow' moment of the grade revelation at the end has detracted somewhat from the appreciation of the effort and thought that people have put in. Perhaps we should re-think this.

I haven't set any extra homework this week, as the speeches are ongoing, but please take some time to click through the links on the blog and read up a little on the Russian Revolution and on George Orwell. You will enjoy finding out some facts, and it will enhance your enjoyment of Animal Farm considerably.

Enjoy your break.
