Reading for Thursday, January 28th and Monday, February 1st

Kiddos! Here is the beginning of our reading schedule for this week and next. It is going to be an intense two weeks of reading, but you can do it! We must get to writing and, thus, you all must finish reading Macbeth promptly.

• Cornell Notes: as I told you in class, the ONLY notes you are required to take from this point forward are those that relate to the three essential questions that directly relate to Macbeth. In other words, you are writing down quotes and any other information (situations, circumstances, decisions and actions of the characters, etc.) that helps you answer the essential questions.
• You need to know the answers as these questions will inform your writing for the essay.
• For reference, here are the three essential questions:
• Why does power bring out the best in some and the worst in others?
• What are the consequences of breaking one's moral code in the pursuit of power?
• Do certain choices forever put is on one, definitive path?
• Questions: You need to only develop TWO level 2 or three questions per scene of each Act.
• By Thursday, January 28th, read to the end of Act II (pages 232-243)
• By Monday, February 1st, read to the end of Act III (pages 245-259)
• On both Thursday and Monday, you will have a reading response/quiz for each Act you are required to read.
