January 25

We started class with a visit to the library so students could recheck books or find new books. Students could also use this time to finish the "On Women's Right To Vote" SOAPSTone assignment from yesterday (due today on Canvas or handed in).

Today's WNB: In your own words, define "tragedy" and give examples. Why are books, movies, the news, etc. concerned with tragedies? How are they used as a form of entertainment in our society?

Students read and took notes over Shakespeare, the characteristics of Shakespearean tragedy, and how to read drama as we get ready to read Julius Caesar. I provided a very brief historical background of Caesar, and we will resume this discussion on Monday.
