Today we corrected the grammar review ws and discussed THE TEMPEST:
We looked at the idea of the play being titles The Tempest vs The Island
We discussed the literal vs the figurative tempest
We discussed original inhabitants of the island and the order in which newcomers arrived
I mentioned "formulas" for Fairy Tales, Romance, Comedy, and Tragedy in the story...we will pick out those elements as we discuss the book ... this book has many modern adaptations...like Gilligan's Island, Lost, and Survivor.
We started to discuss ACT 1:
