Hand in your Reading Lab assignment (summary of 2 chapters of your book or at least 10-15 pages and at least 4 vocabulary words.)
In class: We'll continue reading and discussing the play and work on vocabulary. We'll start writing summaries of some of the scenes that will be presented with or without mime.
Friday, April 4. Preparation: Finish the scene summary assigned to you and be ready to hand it in (typed and double-spaced). Practice reading your character's lines out loud, with feeling and expression.
