The book ends by showing that the commandments have changed from seven different rules, to one main rule: ALL ANIMALS ARE EQUAL BUT SOME ANIMALS ARE MORE EQUAL THAN OTHERS.
In four paragraphs, please reflect on this quote from the book:
Paragraph #1:
How did the farm change from beginning to end in regard to the idea of all animals being equal? Give examples to support your answer.
Paragraph #2:
Do you think Animal Farm is as strong as it was at the beginning? Did the idea of equality change, if so, how? Were all animals still equal? Were they ever equal?
Paragraph #3:
What role did Squealer play in the book? How effective was he in his job? Give examples to support your answer.
Paragraph #4:
Knowing how the events in the story related to history, how is the final quote symbolic of what happened in history? Is it true? What point was the author trying to make in writing this?

Post #2: Mechanics and Grammar
For this post, I want you to read the following examples that are in red type. Then, I would like you to work on fixing any grammar issues that the passage might have. Write your final version in the blog post as: EXAMPLE #1, EXAMPLE #3, EXAMPLE #3.
EXAMPLE #1:
I remember the battle as if it was yesterday, the great snowball planned all perfectly: we the ducks attacked first, our mission was to make the farmers believe they had won by letting them go through our attack, but of course it didn't come to their head that there was a second attack waiting for them.
EXAMPLE #2:
Hard work is paying off in the farm and i'm very happy to be working for this hard worker family. Now that i have the time to think about the thing that happened, for me, the Battle of Cowshed was a battle full of emotions.
EXAMPLE #3:
During this battle there was a carousal, I was very scared and I started to kick everything that I saw, I kicked a boy in his head with my iron horseshoe, he got knocked out. Mr. Jones carried a gun, he killed a sheep that was on our side, and after the war we did a funeral in honor of the sheep.
