First and sixth periods worked on their Anne Frank projects. This involved close-reading the text to determine necessary props, movements, body language, tone, and all the other myriad elements that make up a successful performance.

Planning for the Anne Frank Project

Second and sixth periods spent another day working on inferring subtexts from a given text — critical for act four of Romeo and Juliet.

Seventh period completed Hatchet. We’ll soon be moving to research based on the book.

Homework

• First, sixth, and seventh periods: none.
• Second and fourth periods:
• read Romeo and Juliet 4.1 and 4.2;
• for each scene, write a paragraph based on the following guidelines:
• For 4.1: Select Paris, the Friar, or Juliet, and write a paragraph describing what the character’s subtext is for this meeting.
• For 4.2: Select Juliet or her father and write a paragraph describing what you think the character’s subtext is for this meeting.
