We reviewed the week ahead and talked about the final.

I broke you into groups and had you examine Jane in a +/- timeline. We will use these as we attempt to understand her relationship with Mr. Rochester.

Each group presented their findings.

I assigned ch 11-15 and gave you a quiz on the reading. If you took these home to complete, please make sure that you pass these in Tuesday.

We started off performing the exposition of A Midsummer Nights Dream in 32 sec or less. This forced you to talk about the key events and decide the important parts. Kudos to the group that took my backwards challenge. I will try to put up a video of the best one...

We will be watching a modern version of the play Friday. Be kind and respectful to the sub and no paper topic... Have a great weekend.
