English 10: Finish reading Act 3, Scene 1 . . .

Read slowly to ensure that you understand what is happening but also read the way you have been taught:

Look for the following:

  • shifts in tone
  • short versus long passages
  • prose versus iambic pentametre
  • dramatic changes in action (People dying, getting married, acting on impulse, etc)
  • images for love (lightning, fireworks, spiritual, god-like etc) 
Create notes based on the scene using the above ideas.
Write down your favourite quote from the scene and cite it properly.

BE SURE TO READ YOUR USSR BOOK THIS WEEKEND. HAVE YOU FINISHED A NOVEL YET? YOU SHOULD BE HALFWAY THROUGH YOUR SECOND NOVEL. THE SHEETS ARE DUE DEC. 20.
