Since we didn't have a writer's notebook entry yesterday, we moved the vocab entry to today. Students read for 15 minutes and selected a word for their writer's notebook. My word was glistened: "Her eyes glistened up" (Quinn 5). Glistened means shined or glittered.
We gathered our notes to use on the Greek Drama test tomorrow. Students may use Greek Drama notes, Oedipus Rex questions, Classical Tragedy handout, and Antigone questions and analysis along with the book on their test. We talked about some important terms and ideas we should remember for the test, including Greek tragedy, tragic hero, stichomythic dialogue, theme, hamartia, foil and parallel characters, tone, and imagery.
Students had 20-30 minutes to finish up preparations for their Add-a-Scene presentations. We will present these in class on Friday and Monday. (A few groups were ready to present today, so they're off the hook!)
