Block A: Today we completed a quiz on Act 1 of the play and watched the first act of the movie. Then we moved on to studying figurative language. For Monday you need to complete the chart and find examples of a simile, metaphor, personification, symbolism, alliteration, assonance, onomatopoeia, hyperbole and allusion.
Blocks B&D: Today we continued to read about the trials and tribulations of our characters. Things are even more mixed up than before. Your homework for the weekend is to complete the discussion questions for Act 2 - see below. And to complete the chart of figurative language as well.
1. What images presented by the sprites do you remember best? Attempt to recreate those images.
2. Why are Oberon and Titania fighting?
3. How does Oberon intend to Blackmail Titania into giving him what he wants?
4. By the end of Act 2, what is similar about the following pairs: Lysander and Hermia, Demetrius and Helena, And Oberon and Titania?
5. How would you describe that character of Puck (Robin)? What kind of mood does he create?
6. How might the magical herb described by Oberon act as a metaphor for the way infatuation operates in real life? Explain.
