Her Ladyship, Miss Elizabeth

Dear Shakespeare Students,

We had a great class Thursday! The warm-ups were really fun and Carli gave us an entertaining and funny presentation on "Death and Burial in Renaissance Times". Her handouts (and her cute costume!) were quite a hit! Elizabeth passed off her soliloquy yesterday, AND was the first to advance to the rank of  "Ladyship"!!! YAY ELIZABETH!!! :-)

ONE THING: I forgot to practice the soliloquy with everyone! Oops! So, please be sure to work on it on your own this week.

Here are your assignments for next week:

Reading Assignment: Act III, Scenes 4-6
Writing Assignment: Does getting what you want always make you happy? Why or why not?
Plays: How many plays have YOU read/watched/listened to??? I challenge you to rack up more plays this week! :-)
Memorizing: How are you coming on Macbeth's soliloquy? Be sure to work on memorizing this week!!!

See you next Thursday! :-)

Love,
Mrs. K.
