It took 2 hours and 20 minutes but it’s done! I’ve analysed all the chapters (I say “I” because I did most of the talking 🤨 ) and now we’ve got a solid set of notes to refer to
The exams are in two weeks for secondary students. 2 lessons left💪🏻 And I’m hoping, despite the fact that I’ve had only a short time to do this, that she passes
I only had about forty minutes before class ended to go through the first murder in Macbeth. There’s never enough time 😩
To reinforce Lady Macbeth’s behavior from the previous lesson I did an activity where my student had to be just like her. (He got really into it)
I am absolutely anticipating the activities for the rest of the play, and I’m only halfway through my guide!
The best part that despite how blistering the heat was, it rained during my lesson so the thunder and lightning really helped me capture the effect I wanted
woohoo

Today for 2 1/2 hours we looked at: Signposts in literature, Chap 2-start of Chap 3 (more on analyses once the homework is done), using A Christmas Carol for signpost homework
The previous post contains what I did to better explain signposts. You need examples to really understand these six concepts (better, that is).
Let’s listen

Review of Night School by C.J. Daugherty
To tempt you I’m adding in a scene that anyone could just gush over.Mind you I typed it all out cause, well, duh.
Say hello to male leads Sylvain and Carter (had to omit some things to keep the story a secret):
… “Now we shall enjoy the croquet.”
“Yay,” she replied weakly. “Croquet.”
As they walked back around the corner, she could see that everyone had been waiting for them, including Carter, His eyes told her that he knew exactly what they’d been doing.
“Allie! Sylvain.” His tone was mocking. “This is great. What have you been up to?”
Surprised by his aggression, Allie flushed with anger.
…
Sylvain pulled her closer. “Unfortunately, Carter, our teams are set already. We do not need another player.”
“I didn’t come to play.” Carter put emphasis on the last word.
…
He turned from Sylvain to her.
Allie felt as if a cool breeze had chilled her skin. “I… I’m fine, Carter. Thanks.”
She faltered under his gaze, which seemed to challenge her. As if she’d done something bad, disappointed him in some way.
“That’s great. You do seem much recovered.” His words dripped sarcasm. “Did you hurt your lips, too? Or is it from something else?”
Allie’s hand flew up to cover her mouth as Sylvain took several steps forward.
“Why are you still here, Carter?” he asked icily.
Carter stared at him, unflinching. “I just wanted to see if what I suspected was true.”
“Seen all you need to see?” Sylvain’s voice was low and menacing.
“Hey, everybody,” Ruth stepped between them. “Come on. Stay calm. Let’s not get into something here.”
Carter ignored her. “Oh, I’ve seen enough, Sylvain.”
With a sigh, Ruth stepped out of the way. They were now standing no more than a foot apart, glaring at each other.
