HANNAH TOOK THESE PICTURES TODAY. SHE WANTED ME TO LET YOU ALL KNOW THAT SHE THOUGHT MY TEACHING WAS "KINDA FUN, BUT KINDA BORING"


SHE WAS ALSO VERY CONCERNED THAT WE DO NOT HAVE SNACK TIME.  SO, NEXT WEEK I WILL BE BRINGING SNACKS. I FIGURE WE'LL HAVE TO TEST SAMPLE HALLOWEEN CANDY TO MAKE SURE IT'S TRICK-O-TREATER QUALITY. 


Your homework for next week includes "annotating" the script of She Stoops to Conquer. Please take time to consider working in groups. Annotating is a fancy term for summarizing/taking notes while you read. Take time to read your script and then use a highlighter (or multiple colors) to mark up the script book. In class I expect that you will be able to talk about each scene, what is going on, and who is interacting with who. If you are new to "annotating" consider how you could summarize each chapter/scene with: action, emotion, conflict, character development.  You should have at least 10 annotations for each chapter/scene. When you arrive to class I will be looking through your script to see what caught your attention.  Again, please consider meeting up with classmates. It's easiest to do this in a small group.
