English I Honors students worked on the opening of Romeo and Juliet. The opening pages are pun-filled and not all of the puns (or in fact, none of the puns) are immediately accessible to twenty-first-century fourteen-year-olds. With a little explanation, all was clear.

English 8 students began looking at pronouns and antecedents, which they will learn to use as a reading comprehension trick with difficult texts.
