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.)

B - The one with all of Ms. Ignacio's wrong act and scene references.

ESSENTIAL QUESTION: How does Cowley's The Belle Strategem challenge 18th century ideas of femininity?

After informing me that the act and scene references I gave you for our discussion day were all incorrect, you each took an act from Cowley's play and shared a summary and food for thought with regard to 18th century ideals around men and women's perceptions of love and marriage.

PRACTISE:

  • Rewrite a scene from your Act into a series of social media posts or text messages, capturing the wit and subtext in a modern format.
  • Update Learning Inventory

NEXT CLASS: Learner conferences, Dryden
