For the ill and the absent-minded -

Here, you will find a very brief summary of class discussions and activities, lists of assigned readings, and links to other resources. The posts are reminders of what we covered in class and/or of what you missed by being absent physically and/or mentally. If we are required to work remotely, the posts will give directions for the day's activities, and let you know when we will meet via Google Meets. Please read the posts, talk with your classmates, and do the practise work as it suits the timing at home. Please put all work in your digital folders via Google Drive. Feel free to make comments and if you're still confused, please email me!

(NB: I do not condone class absences - you must be present, in class, actively listening and participating whenever possible. Always communicate your absences with the school office as well as with me. It is your responsibility to make arrangements for missed learning opportunities. You MUST meet all assignment deadlines. If we have to meet via Google Meets, please make a note of the QR link posted in Room 205 for the meeting id and passwords.)

G - The one with acting out Act V with Mr. Casiano.

ESSENTIAL QUESTION: What's the purpose of comic relief?

We heard the last two creative reactions to Gertrude's announcement of Ophelia's death.

We worked the first part of Act V, scene i and played out the scene in groups of four. Thank you to Mr. Casiano for joining us as we played out the scene by "feeding" each other the lines. (See what we did there... we literally giving you comic relief!)

PRACTISE: If you did not present your creative reactions / interpretations, please send them to me and explain why you were not able to present in class.

NEXT CLASS:

  • "The women in Hamlet are weak and gullible." Discuss.
  • Tennyson's "The Lady of Shalott"
