Shakespeare:

We began reading our Herald.  See video above :-)

Pg 64.  The Psychiatrist's Couch.  Pg 64.  We looked at Iago's soliloquy on 65.  In pairs, one played doctor, one Iago.  Using Iago's lines as answers, ask him about his obsession with both Othello and Cassio.  We performed these after lunch.

We put names in Lord Vader's dome for Secret Santa.

We covered Act II, sc 2.  One of his shortest scenes at 10 lines. 

Last 10 min: Othello Fridays!
