1. Hi everyone! Starting Monday, March 30, you will all start using Edgenuity. Here is what you need to do this week:
2. Read Act 3 in A Midsummer Night's Dream, and do the Cornell notes. Please remember: You need an essential question on the first page, the notes for scene 1 on the first side, and the notes for Scene 2 on the back. You need a summary of the whole act on the back page of your notes. An appropriate essential question for Act 3 might be: What new conflicts/challenges/obstacles are introduced in Act 3, and how do they progress the plot?
***TIP: Read the Spark Notes for Act 3 AFTER you read. However, don't just read the Spark Notes. You will miss things. Instead, read it on your own first, and then read the Spark Notes to make sure that you understood everything.
3. Once you are done, answer the fill in the blank questions over Acts 1-3 posted on Google Classroom.
4. Do the LAST NO RED INK OF THE SEMESTER. :)
