Friday, Honors English

Quiz on Act II, scenes i, ii, iii.
Finish Act II.

Write about Fate or Freewill
Define “fate” and “destiny.”  Is there a difference between them?  Do you believe in fate, destiny, freewill, all, some of each, or none?  If so, what do you think you’re fated to do? Explain how they intermingle, or elaborate about how freewill defies or precludes the existence of fate and destiny?  If you do not believe in fate or destiny, what controls or influences your future and in what way?  What is beyond your control?  Is that fate or merely circumstance?

Shakespeare & the Globe Quiz

There is a new calendar available my website HERE.

Today, we took a quiz on Shakespeare and the Globe. The quiz was based on the video from A&E. The  Globe information was taken from The Friendly Shakespeare and an old article on Sam Wanamaker. All information is in the attachments on the bottom of this page.

We will have a quiz on the handout given in class called "Yikes!" We'll also start reading Twelfth Night in class next time. Come ready for some comedy.
