WOS:

Today:
3nd Annual Shakespeare Olympic Games

To be held on the first unexpectedly crazy-warm school day…

Events:

1. Superior Spring Sonnet. Find a quiet spot outside to sit and write a sonnet that draws inspiration from the fabulous weather that we are having.

Must include the following that we have discussed:

Iambic Pentameter with marked stressed and unstressed syllables

14 Lines

ABAB CDCD EFEF GG with end lines marked

Last two lines answer a question, or is used as a “power chord”


2. Pinky Sword Fight. Imagine that your pinky finger is a four foot, 45 lbs. sword. But together a group sword fight that shows both the weight and size of your sword in an epic battle from any play that we have read.



3. Epic Line battle. FIGHT! Race to your line, read it with power and emotion and pass it to the next student. Repeat. First group to the finish line reading all lines wins the round.
