Homework over the weekend 10/4-10/5

Hello all!

Our Greek Performances today were AWESOME! So much fun! Don't put your togas back in the attic, we will be using them again later on in the trimester. Your homework over the weekend is to complete your rough draft of the Narrative piece based off of a target, perpetrator, ally or bystander experience. Should be at least two pages in length, in your logbook or typed up. We will be working on revising with narrative literary elements on Monday in class.

Have a great weekend!

Greek Theater. . .

We have been doing a close reading of the Antigone's final speech, and Tiresias' final speech. You will be examining the speeches for use of language that reveals emotions.

On Monday we will be continuing our theatrical skills in "The Living Chorus," with Steve's class.

See you on Monday!
