English 10: Blocks 5/6

We are almost at the end of R&J!!! I have been very impressed with the engaging discussions!

We started off class with a quiz for Acts Two and Three, and then spent the rest of the period in the library working on the R&J creative assignments. Most students finished today.

For the second period, we started off with a lesson on semi-colons. We then went over yesterday's scene questions and read R&J up until the very last scene. We watched the movie and completed questions respectively. At the very end of class, I showed a "teaser" of the first scene of the Leonardo DiCaprio version of R&J (just to get the students as excited as I am to watch it!)

Reminders:
  • Questions for Act Four, Scene Five and Act Five, Scenes One and Two: due next class
