__**Allegory-**__ A story...each character represents or symbolizes something other than what it is...or the characters have more than one meaning

__**Satire-**__ entertainment that contains the use of sarcasm, irony, to ridicule/poke fun at someone...

__Fable-__ a story that has a moral lesson and it has animals as characters...that can speak....

|| Karl Marx- He was a political philosopher in the 1800s whose ideas are reflected in the concept of socialism and communism. He reminds me of my Dad. || My Dad- Karl is like my Dad because they both do the right thing all the time. They both make/made sacrifices every day for the people they love. || || Moses represents the Russian Orthodox Church because he never did any work, and the people of the church didn't either. He talked about Sugar Candy Mountain which represents heaven. He reminds me of a potato. || Moses is a potato because he never does any work. Do you see potatoes out mowing the lawn? No. Also because of the phrase couch potato. People that just sit around and do nothing. || || Mollie represents Russia's Upper Class because she liked to wear ribbons in her hair and to look different than the other animals. She reminds me of a princess. || Mollie reminds me of a princess because she likes to have fancy things, and a princess does too. Princesses are in the upper class because a) they are royalty and b) they are rich. Mollie is like a princess because she wants to be treated better than an average animal. || || The farmhouse represents the Kremlin. It does because it was saved from destruction in a similar way as the farmhouse was. || The farmhouse reminds me of an illusion. It does because the animals never knew what to think of it. Some thought f it as a place that should be destroyed, and some thought it as a place to remained untouched like a museum. || || The Battle of the Cowshed represents Red October. The battle between the Bolsheviks and the Tsarists. This reminds me of the bad guy. || This reminds me of the bad guy because every story has one. There is always someone who wants more for himself, and for other people to have less. In relation to animal farm Napoleon could be considered as the bad guy since he is turning the farm into a tyranny. ||
 * ~ Character/Item/Event from Animal Farm ||~ What it symbolizes for Orwell ||~ What it symbolizes to me ||
 * Old Major- Has was a pig and the leader of Manor Farm
 * Moses-He was the raven and personal pet of Mr. Jones.
 * Mollie-She was a horse on the farm.
 * The Farmhouse- It was the home of Mr. and Mrs. Jones. It eventually became the home of the pigs.
 * Battle of the Cowshed- During this battle Mr. Jones and his workers tried to overthrow the animals and make Animal Farm their own once again.
 * The Food Bins- Napoleon fills the bins with sand and tops them with grain to make it look like there is a lot of food.

|| This represents Collectivization in Russia because Stalin tricked the people into thinking that there was more products than there was just like Napoleon did with the animals.

|| What this means to me is an industry headquarters because those people are in charge of everything that happens just like Napoleon was with the animals.

||
 * Squealer - A pig on the farm that was Napoleon's right hand man (pig)

|| Squealer represents the Russian Media because he is always informing the animals of the things happening on the farm whether they are true or not.

|| Squealer reminds me of a politician because they both will say anything to make people believe that his is right || Thought Questions- 1.The animals never did because they knew that Moses always told stories and, he never did anything so they didn't trust him. 2.The song represents the animals' freedom. It is important in the rebellion because it motivated the animals to overthrow Mr. Jones. 3.Their resentment disappeared because they thought they were working for themselves when they were really working for the pigs. 4.He is against it because he disagreed with Snowball on every occasion, and he was too proud to admit that it was a good idea. He changed his mind because he wanted to take credit for what Snowball had done. 5.They got into a fight because Snowball wanted the windmill to built and he was convincing the animals to vote for him. Napoleon called the dogs and they attacked Snowball. None of the animals interfered because they were scared of Napoleon and the dogs. 6.The pigs then became in control of everything the food, government,and production. This affected the animals because the pigs made them work harder, and then they got less food. 7.They shouldn't but they do. They shouldn't because the leader could make a bad decision and the people have no idea. 8.They changed the 7 commandments and they told the animals had just forgotten what they said. 9. When the pigs said that they would wake up one hour later than everyone else, no one complained because they are the ones who control and no one could fight with them because Napoleon would make the dogs go after them. 10. Napoleon knew that Snowball destroyed the windmill because there were pig tracks leading up to it, and Snowball had been against the animal rebellion the whole time. 11. She says that times now are better than Jones. One reason is that the pigs didn't whip the animals in the beginning of the story, and Jones did.
