First and fourth periods worked with 1.5 of Romeo and Juliet, examining two passages when the young couple first meet each other.
Second and seventh periods completed the first act of The Diary of Anne Frank. After starting with a short informational text about the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah (which appears in the scene itself), we looked at the significance the gifts Anne gave her family and co-conspirators.
It is also the scene in which the conspirators hear a thief rummaging around in the lower floors, adding to the play a new element of terror about potential discovery.
