Sweater Weather Wednesday:

Block A: We finished reading Act 1 in class, then worked on creating headlines, which we put on the board. I then gave you some discussion questions to complete and hand in tomorrow.

1. How did Ariel and Caliban come to be Prospero's servants? How do they feel about their status?

2. What is Prospero's emotional state at the end of Act 1? What might be the reason for it?

3. In what way are Miranda and Ferdinand like characters in a fairy tale? Why might Shakespeare have chosen to portray them in this way?

4. In the play, Miranda and Ferdinand fall in love immediately. Do you believe in "love at first sight? in real life? What are some dangers of falling in love so fast?

Block B: One more meeting tomorrow! Finish your novel and complete your 2 signpost journals - due either Thursday or Friday!

Block D: We will continue working on ELO 8 the symbolism and couplet poem in class tomorrow, homework for tonight is to read chapter 6 and complete your text-codes.
