Simplicity

Hey You All! So today we took a quotes quiz and then started Act 2 scene 1. So you are going to want to finish that and do the question for Thursday. Simple as that. Get it done.

for tuesday

Hello fellow literature students,

Please excuse my tardiness in making this post. On Thursday we went through Act 1 Scene 2 of Hamlet. The homework for this Tuesday is to read and finish all questions for scenes 3-5 of Hamlet in the Hamlet Study Guide Questions packet; also be advised that there will be a test on the entirety of Act 1 on Tuesday; so read, re-read, then re-re-read. Know the lines well.

Happy studying

In class today we started reading Act 1 Scene 2 of Hamlet and our homework for Thursday is to finish reading the scene and do the questions.

Have a nice evening!

Test Day

Today in Lit class we wrote the Victorian Unit Test. Then, we were introduced briefly to Hamlet!
Homework: Read Preface to Shakespeare on page 422, answer all the reading check questions and then do question #3 for study & discussion. On Thursday (next class), there will be a history test on the Victorian Age.

I See Dead People

and one really cute love sonnet.

On today's episode of Literature 12, we reviewed and discussed "To An Athlete Dying Young" and "Is My Team Ploughing" by A.E. Housman. After that, we read Elizabeth Barrett Browning's sonnet 43, "Song" by Emily Brontë, and the sections on The English Novel and The Growth of the English Language. Since we've wrapped up this age, we'll be having our unit test on Tuesday composed of the following:

• Name That Poet - given a line or two from some poems we've studied, if you know it, name the poet.
• *Define the Underline(d) - give the definitions for 5 different underlined words from the lines of poetry mentioned above
• Fill-in-the-Blanks
• Quotes - provide the titles and meanings of each quote
• One-Paragraph Response (3x)

*study tip: re-read the poems we've looked at in this unit, and define the words you're unfamiliar with in each poem.

IN ADDITION we will be tested on the History section for this Age on Thursday (to make things easier). Just for fun (and to get some studying done without actually studying), check out Mr. Osborne's 8-minute video on the Victorian Age here.

Haaaaaave a good long weekend!
