To seek, to strive, to find, and not to yield. - Ulysses

Wednesday, May 31, 2017

Work for your Wednesday:

Block A: A wonderful start to our play today - great job reading!!! For homework tonight - please complete descriptions of the characters we've met so far in addition questions 1-10 in the study guide.

Blocks B&D: A great introduction to the play - thanks to all the volunteers - we're off to a good start! Here are the questions for homework this evening:

1. Examine the first introduction of the weird sisters. Why do you think Shakespeare would open with this scene? Explain your answer using a minimum of 3 reasons.

2. Create a character sketch (not a drawing - use quotes) of Macbeth through indirect characterization. Find 4-5 quotes that describe Macbeth according to those around him.

3. Find examples of paradox and allusion in 1.1 and 1.2. 
        To quote Shakespeare you have 2 choice (1. 2. 25) or (I, ii, 25)

4. Discuss Macbeth and Banquo's reaction to the prophecies. How do they differ? What can we infer about their characters?
