May 30, 2012

My posts have gotten a little shorter these days. I want to remind you that you are great. You are trying to learn and understand Shakespeare; I admire your efforts. It isn't easy. Hang in there; you will find it easier and easier every day.

English 12
Quiz on Act 1 tomorrow. If you listened to my questions, you will do just fine.
Synthesis writing. Have a typed draft ready for tomorrow. Please type it and save it on your computer or on a flash drive.
Do the questions (briefly) up to #7 in scene 2 of Act 2. There will be a quiz on Act 2/3 on Wednesday. I did say Tuesday in class, but I forgot about commencement the night before.

English 10
Go over Romeo's soliloquy in scene 2 of Act 2. Find 5 literary devices and explain what they say. What do they tell you about how Romeo sees Juliet?
For example,
it is the east and Juliet is the sun: Metaphor/ Juliet is very special; she is as bright as the biggest star and without her, his world would be dark.
Please have this done for tomorrow so that we can continue with the Act. Remember that we have a double block on Friday and that it is the last two hours of the day.
Quiz on Act 2/3 on Monday.

We should check it out in class.

I will be at the beach by 7:30 or before.
Please bring your pictures for tomorrow. One should be vertical and the other horizontal. Bring 4 copies of your poem.
