October 21, 2010 Class

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.

Mrs. K,
I found your website and am very interested in signing up my son for your class, however, I do not have any contact information for you, other than this blog. Please let me know how to continue and if we can get signed up. Thank you so much.

Hi Monica,
Welcome!

First of all, may I ask how you found my blog?

And secondly, where do you live? I hold these classes in Chandler, Arizona.

Have a great day! :-)

I found your site on an Idaho homeschooling blog and we live in Idaho. I am so sad. We were really looking forward to being a part of your class. Are you aware of anything like this in Idaho?

Thanks, Monica

Monica: There is a great group in Idaho! (I used to live there!) I know the ladies who run the Shakespeare class in Southeast Idaho. (They meet at the Rigby library.) Even if you are elsewhere in Idaho, I may be able to find another Shakespeare group for you.

E-mail me at libermama at gmail dot com, and I'll send you the contact information of the Shakespeare mentor in Rigby. :-)

Hugs,
Mrs. K.
