Students have completed Hamlet Act II and will review the act in its entirety on Monday. The quiz for Act II will be held Tuesday, February 23, 2010. After the quiz the students will break from Shakespeare to continue in preparation for the PSSA writing exams.
Students will continue examples in the Editing/Revising workbooks and will begin drafting their own writing. Most exercises will be completed in class. However, the activity that will be held during class on Friday, February 26, 2010 will carry over into an assignment that each student will need to complete at home over the weekend. The activity will be modeled during class so that students understand all of the expectations of the assignment.
