November 21, 2012

Period 1--AP 20
We finished with our viewing activity of the two soliloquies and did a bit of a comparative analysis between the two productions.  We continued to read the rest of Act II of Othello.  The students notice the number of passages and monologues that Iago's has compared to the title character and are starting to appreciate the evil genius of Iago.

Period 2--AP 30
We did another page for the Math PLT and then got down to work.  We discussed the questiosn from yesterday's viewing activity of the "Knight's Tale" and then moved into some post-viewing questions.  We spent some time determining the theme of the except as well as appreciating the various "lenses" through which a viewer and reader must use in order to see the "big picture" of Chaucer's intent.  Tomorrow we will take up the "Pardoner's Tale."

Period 3--AP 10
Since I was missing half the class for Driver Training, I gave the students left in class time to get caught up on various assignments, read Animal Farm, or work on other assignments (like studying for their History exam).

Period 4--History 10
We finished reviewing the rest of that booklet of supplementary info from yesterday, and then I gave the kids a handout for them to fill out that is, essentially, a study guide.  We will go over the study guide tomorrow together as a class.
