- We started the period by finishing the final scene of Julius Caesar. We then spent a few minutes discussing each of the diary assignment characters. Students shared their opinions on whether Antony, Brutus and Cassius are patriots or traitors to Rome. In the end, as long as the students can justify their position, there really is no wrong answer.
- We also reviewed the overall requirements for the Character Diary assignment. See homework below for reminders
- The students then took the Vocabulary & Spelling #11-12 QUIZ (even though it was not Friday).
- After they finished the quiz, they read silently for about 20 minutes.
- We corrected the vocabulary & spelling quiz, then we passed back work and updated portfolios.
- Homework: Complete Act V.iii Notes (page 26), VFA #13-14, Bring JC Book and Packet. Bring Student ID, Upload Character Diary to Turnitin.com by Sunday 11/28, Finish Final Draft of Character Diary:o Illustrated Cover with Titleo Images/sketches on each entryo Quote w/ citation on each entryo More than 5 entries to try for an “A”o All bound together to look like a diary
This blog is meant to keep my Composition & Literature students updated on my class. If you forgot what we did in class, or if you were absent, please check in here to find out what happened in class. This will be updated at the end of each class day.
