Wednesday, January 9th

This week we've begum "A Midsummer Night's Dream," a play by William Shakespeare. We've started off with a powerpoint on Shakespeare, and tried some Shakespearean insults!I've posted the learning outcomes and unit activities today. I outlined the story of the play, and we read a simplified version of it. We previewed different versions of perfoming the play on my MSND video blog. We read Act One, Scene One to get a flavour for language.

Learner to do list:
1. Review terms: soliloquy, monologue, aside, blank verse
