Period 2: You can use this link to complete your facebook assignment:
Facebook Simulator (Thanks, Dominic) Final assignment includes:
1 script for each cast member -- script should be annotated: define any unknown words, indicate, entrance, movement, exits (using abbreviations), tone, pauses, emotion, delivery notes, actions -- be sure I know who's script I am getting (your name and your character name) If there are any cuts, this must be indicated on all scripts 1 script with paraphrased summary of action (modern English) 1 page that describes setting, time, place, (including year), prop list -- I'd be curious to know what food and drink you're serving at the banquet too. 1 page with either descriptions or drawings of costumes A diagram of the setting -- location of entrances, exits, banquet table, chairs, etc. 1 Character chart for each cast member You will be able to work on this for a portion of class again Monday/Tuesday. PERIOD 1 STUDENTS: IF YOU WERE ABSENT TODAY, IGNORE THE PROMPT BOOK PROJECT!!! COME TO MY OFFICE TO DO A MAKE UP QUIZ (10 QUESTIONS) AND COMPLETE THE WORK BELOW. For homework: Choose ONE of the questions attached. Write a one paragraph answer. (This will be relatively long paragraph.) Follow these instructions exactly! Because this is a play, when you include a quotation for support, the speaker must be identified BEFORE the quotation; also include the person(s) addressed and/or the situation or location. For example: When Lady Macbeth responds to her husband’s question about possible failure in their plot, she is incredulous that her spouse would even think to vocalize such a thought. At this point in the play, Lady Macbeth is determined and resolute. Her unwavering single-mindedness is readily apparent when Macbeth, still somewhat apprehensive, asks his wife, “If we should fail?” (I.vii.59), and Lady Macbeth replies with, “Screw your courage to the sticking-place/And we’ll not fail” (I.vii.60). Lady Macbeth next proposes her plan for her husband’s swift and opportune rise to power: murder the king and blame it on the guards. Rules of formal grammar apply-- no slang, no hashtags :-(, no contractions (except Shakespeare's) Grading Criteria: • Correct MLA formatting, including double spacing, heading, etc. Title • Strong topic sentence (Give a contention, what you will prove - this is your answer to the question, that you then support with evidence) • Third person point of view • Do not use "I," not even "I believe" Present verb tense • Write about literature in the present tense; it's happening now because it's being read now Spellchecked, grammar-checked, proofread outloud. • At least 3 supporting details or examples • Minimum 3 quotations, properly documented: (Act.scene.lines): (I.iii.3-6) • Summarizing clincher• http://www.nexuslearning.net/books/elements_of_lit_course6/Renaissance/collection%204/Macbeth3%20p1.htm Due at the beginning of class Monday / Tuesday Part I: Begin by watching the first half of the PBS Series Shakespeare Uncovered, In Search of Macbeth. I recommend you use your own headphones. There are some in the back. (Click on launch)
Prior to watching the clip, open these questions on the film. You may print and handwrite your answers, or split screens and type your answers. Regardless, the answers are due at the end of class. This is not homework. Part II: When you are finished, I'd like you to use the Bedford Martin Glossary of Literary Terms to define: Imagery, Metaphor, Simile, and Personification in your packets. Try to find an example of each one from Act I of Macbeth. I have linked to the same text that is in your book. Define aside and soliloquy using the same glossary (you do not need to find examples) Whatever you don't finish in class, please finish at home. These should be done before you come to your next class. If you do Part II for homework, you may use your textbook (Honors) instead of the online sources if you wish. |
