Today our communication 4 class went by really slow. Once we started to read about Macbeth it seemed like everyone started to get really tired. After we were done reading it went quite well. We answered questions with partners and worked on our book projects.

10/22 - 10/23

Objectives: Practice the ACT
Review play
go over terminology
read play
work on book projects

Activities: ACT; Macbeth; book project

HWK: read 311-317 (finish act I)

I feel like we had a very productive and successful class today. We went over The ACT and really helped our preparation for this up and coming ACT. I also feel like reading Macbeth out loud today gave me a little bit better of an understanding of what was going on. I can make a better connection with each character if each of them is read by a different person. Overall, I think today was a great class that helped everybody catch up to what is going on at this point.
