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?
