- We started the period with a an introduction to Grammar Unit 3-Phrases. The students completed page 89-90 which covered prepositional phrases.
- We then went through several pages in the Julius Caesar Packet to introduce the students to Shakespeare's version of the play.
- I first introduced the Character Diary Assignment. The assignment is explained on page 31 of the Julius Caesar packet. We went through each element of the assignment, and I passed around a few student samples.
- I then discussed the quote citation requirements which are outlined on pages 29-30 in the Julius Caesar packet.
- We reviewed the Changes in Language (page 12) and the Shakespearean Insults (page 13) in order to introduce the students to the language.
- We then reviewed the expectations for the notes pages in the Julius Caesar packet. Students will be expected to take notes for each scene of the play.
- We ended by going over the Nature of Tragedy and the Tragic Hero on pages 27-28 in the packet.
- Homework: Bring your student ID
