Check recent blog posts to ensure that you are caught up. Remember, if you miss a class or you are late for a class, you miss material and it's your job to get caught up. Your notes are due at the end of the unit so if you miss class or you are not taking notes, you'll end up with a big project to complete simultaneously with your essay and quote log. Planning now will keep the stress levels down.
Due: BCTELA story (a good copy with absolutely no errors). Do not put your name on the story. Instead, attach the contest cover sheet.
Due: Choose a second location to publish your story. Get the notes or check a previous post.
Homework: Read and make notes on Act 2, Scene 3. Pay particular attention to the following:
1. The dialogue between Cassio and Iago regarding Desdemona. Notice the different ways each character perceives her.
2. The silence motif.
3. Iago's lies.
4. Why Cassio is so upset and what that reveals about his character.
5. The plan for Cassio to win back his position with Othello.
Overall in this scene, what is revealed about reason, honour and passion?
