When my group went over the questions from Fahrenheit 451, they answered a lot of questions for me because I was really confused. For example, we talked about Montag's happyness, the importance of technology to the society, and why books were banned. We wondered why people didn't question the government, and it was helpful discussing this with other people, because we shared our ideas and then the book made more sense to us. My questions were answered about why the author had jets fly over, what the mechanical hound is, etc. We also discussed what may have happened to Clarisse. Some of us thought she died, and some of us thought the government kidnapped her and her family and are brain washing them or arresting them.
Our group discussion was pretty effective, we had a lot to talk about, and it was good that each other's questions got answered.

It seemed like you discussed quite a few things. What were your answers to some of the things you mentioned - the jets flying over, the mechanical hound, etc?
Use this space to reveal your thinking and extend it to help you better understand the book.
