English 9 Class Notes

Objectives: Freshmen identified and explained plot, character, setting, and figurative language in a drama.

This is only a day after Romeo was despairing over Rosaline. That was Sunday, and the title characters are married early Monday afternoon, roughly.

Remember to bring the Chain of Events graphic organizer with you next class.

Have a great weekend.
