Ben arrived 1/2 late today and enthusiastically showed me two keyboards he built this week. He demonstrated its use and was clearly proud of his accomplishment. We spent the 15 minutes of class reviewing the prevalent themes in Orwell's "1984"novel, such as power and control, love and sexuality, and individual identity. Ben will be assigned homework next Tuesday, 3/18 when we are able to progress further in chapter V in Book II
