See what I did there12s?
Block A: In-class essay tomorrow. Please come prepared to write. If you want extra time - you may start at lunch - there will be no extra time after school.
Block C: Today we continued with The Tempest I showed an example of what a character response might look like. In addition there were 5 questions from Act 1 that we will discuss tomorrow. Here are the questions:
1. How does Gonzalo behave during the storm? Antonio and Sebastian? What clues to their character do you get in this scene?
2. How did Ariel and Caliban come to be Prospero's servant? How do they feel about their status?
3. What is Prospero's emotional state at the end of Act 1? What might be the reason for it?
4. In what way are Miranda and Ferdinand like characters in a fairy tale? Why might Shakespeare have chosen to portray them in this way?
5. In the play, Miranda and Ferdinand fall in love immediately. Do you believe in "love at first sight" in real life? What are som dangers of falling in love so fast?
We started to read Act 2 as well - and we will continue tomorrow. Beware of those lions everyone!
Block D: Today was editing day! Self and peer editing of your multi-paragraph composition. The good copy (double-spaced) along with all other aspects of this assignment (see the criteria sheet if you're not sure what that means) are due on Friday.
