Writer's Notebook: Article of the Week - Justice Antonin Scalia's death shifts balance of high court, creates major election issue - Students read and annotated the article, then wrote a 1/2 page response in their writer's notebook.
We looked at the definition of stichomythia (ignore "Assignment" part) and found examples from Oedipus Rex that use the technique effectively. Students worked in pairs to create their own stichomythic dialogue.
We took some time to review questions from Ode 1 and Scene 2. We read Ode 2 and answered questions together. At this point in the tragedy, our fear for Oedipus is increasing as he draws closer and closer to his true identity.
