Friends! Romans!
Countryman! The last marking period of the second semester begins May 2,
2011 and ends June 16.
It’s time for
Shakespeare - Julius Caesar! We will be reading the entire play in
class, and will also view scenes from the 1953 movie (with Marlon Brando playing
Marc Antony) as we read. Students will choose a project to work on related
to the play, either individually or with a partner or group. Projects range
from movies to scene presentations to art to rewriting scenes. Projects
will be presented the week of June 6th. There will be quizzes on each act of the
play, and the semester final will test knowledge of the play in its
entirety.
We will continue
vocabulary study and grammar Do-Nows.

CALENDAR
LINK: Here
you can find out what we did in class each day and what the homework
is. I update this section constantly
to reflect our activities. If you
are absent, this link will tell you what you need to do to catch up. Students
who were absent must submit an absence clearance when they return to class
in order to get missed handouts and turn in completed work.
WEBGRADE
LINK:
Please note that webgrades will be posted by the
end of the third week of the marking period but will not be weighted until there are enough grades to make the
weights meaningful. By the fifth
week of the grading period, weights will be assigned. Until then, webgrades
are useful to see how well you did on each assignment (and if you're
missing any).
It's good to be behind a book.
