English 9 Class Notes

Objectives: Freshmen identified and explained character, setting, idiom, plot, imagery, irony, point of view, motif, symbol, and theme in a drama.

First freshmen, we completed the fourth act of Romeo and Juliet today and you had time to complete your During Reading questions. We saw the much reduced scene five of Franco Zeffirelli’s version of Shakespeare’s drama and the added funeral scene with the friend of Romeo riding off to tell him of Juliet’s apparent demise. I quizzed you over the act at hour’s end.

No homework for the weekend, but be ready to plow through the fifth act next week before rodeo and then to draft over the play again when we return in March.
