Alien Planet Project Work


Please write a brief post for each day you work on the Alien Planet Project in class. Focus on your contributions to your group: ideas, leadership, products.

Puppet Show


Post any additional comments about the story "Puppet Show" here. You might discuss the implications of the two "tests" that the aliens give the earth people. Did we pass the tests? What does this imply about us? What is the story's conclusion about xenophobia?
