* Thanks for the feedback. Background images are probably just a question of taste. Personally, I like to use strong visual images as backgrounds as I find this works well for me and engages my classes. This was especially so in this lesson as the theme is dystopia so I wanted a strong image for impact. These can be easily changed to suit preference though.*
(Royalty free images used throughout. Blurb taken from the books “Zombie Camp” and “Monument 14.”)
