We'll start Macbeth the week we return to school. Tuesday February 3rd bring Macbeth to class as well as your vocabulary and grammar books.
Below is the guideline for the Macbeth unit. Please write the assignments down in your planner as a backup in the event you are unable to access a computer to get the details...when you want/need them.
Procedure:
- We will read Macbeth at home (one ACT at a time) and complete a study guide
- We'll read the act in class (students will be given parts)
- We'll have a quiz on the act (the day after it is finished in class...this is your announcement of each quiz)
- A test will follow the completion of the book (The Monday after we finish the book in class)
Act 1: read/complete reading guide by Thursday 2-5-09
Act 2: read/complete reading guide by Tuesday 2-10-09
Act 3: read/complete reading guide by Thursday 2-12-09
Act 4: read/complete reading guide by Thursday 2-19-09
Act 5: read/complete reading guide by Tuesday 2-24-09
Remember all work you turn in must be your own. If you are confused with the Shakespeare, visit me during my tutoring hours (starting at 7 each day or by appointment).
The book looks longer than it really is...one page is the text and the page next to it is notes/translations. For example...what you have to read in ACT 1 is actually 19 pages...the notes are for assistance as needed. TAKE NOTES ON QUESTIONS you have while ACTIVE READING. We'll discuss in class!
