Period 1--AP 20
We finished reading the play Othello and started on a power point discussion. Right now, it focusses on Iago and his machinations.
Period 2--AP 30
Mr. Farrell continued to take the students through Act II today and they just nicely finished reading the act. Tommorrow, they will back-track a bit and will annotate Hamlet's second soliloquy.
Period 3--AP 10
We did a quick exercise on point of view that help them review the concepts as well as showed how point of view can change the reading of a passage. Then, I gave them a quick speech as to my favourite book of all time. I told them that their assignment will be to give a short speech on their favourite book of all time. We discussed the qualitites of a good speaker and the organization of a speech. Tomorrow they will have time to start creating their 1 minute speech. This is a practice speech to get them ready for a speech that will be more involved than this simple one.
Period 4--History 10
We finished the cloze exercise after reviewing a bit. Another handout was given to the students to supplement the information and highlight the reasons for the start of the revolution. At this point, we were able to start watching a documentary on Louis XVI. Students were to write down about five things that they learned about Louis and his rule.
