Block A: We read Act 2 in class today and wrote our headlines up on the board. The rest of the class was to work on the 3 questions for Act 3:
1. What character speaks in verse in 2.2? Which characters in prose? Why might Shakespeare have made this distinction?
2. Based on what you learned in this act, which character would you call the villain of the play? Why? Support your answer with examples from the text.
3. As The Tempest begins, Antonio has overthrown Prospero, the legitimate ruler of Milan. Prospero admits early in the play that he was an inattentive ruler. Is the overthrow of a legitimately chosen government ever acceptable? Make a Text-World connection.
Block B: Every group managed to finish all of their work - I'm so impressed! If you didn't hand in your journals - please do so tomorrow. Homework tonight is to finish the self-reflection!
Block D: Thank you for your poems! Homework tonight is to finish the chapter 6 response sheet.
