MACBETH! Act 1 quiz Monday:)
Now that our poetry unit is complete, we have a strong foundation to find poetic devices and terms in Macbeth...which is in essence, not just a play but one big long poem itself!
Act 1 has brought us an understanding of the characters and setting, as well as given us some things to look forward to as we begin the rising action of the play.
Please remember to finish completing the Act 1 crossword, and questions to better understand the events that have just transpired in the play. Of course these will help you prepare for the ACT 1 quiz on Monday too. Here are some hints:
- know the names and titles of the royalty introduced
- who was the battle against in the opening scenes, 1.2?
- names of King Duncan's sons
- heir to the throne
- witches prophecies so far to Macbeth and Banquo
- ironic passages so far?
Enjoy the long weekend and see you all Monday!
