Honors 11--Friday, September 21

Objective: Get to know William Shakespeare

What we did today:
1- #3 ACT Concept--students need to continue studying these concepts for weekly quizzes.
2- We watched A&E's Biography on William Shakespeare
3- We reviewed last night's homework--class contest looking at the most interesting facts about William Shakespeare.

Homework:
Why should we study Shakespeare?
Go home and research what people are saying about this. Then write a 1/2 paper (double space times new roman) summarizing/explaining/answering the question--Why should we study Shakespeare? Use at least three different sites, blogs, articles, etc. to back up your ideas.
At the bottom of your paper, just copy and paste the website links (again, at least 3) that you used for your paper. This is a formal assignment--not just bullet points, but actual sentences and explanations as to why we should study him. 

If you read this and you want some extra points, print off a picture of the current book cover that you are reading--cut it out and bring it to me for my bulletin board. Consider your extra points a reward for actually taking the time to read the blog.
