- We started class with a quiz on Prepositions #27-53. While the students took the quiz, I checked homework-Act III Notes for R&J.
- We then corrected the Prepositions #27-53 Quiz as a class.
- The students then signed up for their performance group/scene.
- We then finished listening to Romeo and Juliet Act III.
- While the news broadcast group prepared outside, we reviewed the details of Act III
- The Act III New Broadcast group gave their presentation.
- The students then worked on a QuickWrite called: Imagine. They had to write a one page diary-type entry from the perspective of the character they will be playing in their scene. This is the first step is understanding their character and motivation. Once they completed the quick write, they worked on the questions about their character in the performance packet.
- We ended the period by having a discussion about theme and the theme essay that they will be writing after we finish reading Romeo and Juliet.
