To start our conversation about Shakespeare....
- What do you already know about our friend, Willie?
- Why do you think he continues to fascinate people?
- What has his name and legacy come to mean to modern folks?
- Let's check out what John Bolton thinks on his TED talk.
- Journal 1: Create at least five open-ended, essential questions that you would like to learn about Shakespeare. (These should be deeper thinking ideas that you find interesting and wouldn't mind researching.)
Homework: Spend 1/2 an hour researching. Find out as much as you can about Shakespeare and bring your notes to class tomorrow as Journal 2. The person with the most unknown facts may win a bit of extra credit to help on the first journal check.
*If you would like a hard copy of our next play, I recommend the Folger's paperbacks. Julius Ceasar is up this week.
