Mrs. & Mr.

First, we completed the Macbeth vocabulary quiz -- a combination of unit 5 words with reference to the plot and analysis of Macbeth.

Second, we broke into 2 groups to analyze the differences between Mrs. Macbeth (she was the first to speak in the scene) and Mr. Macbeth (he was the last to speak in the scene). While the bickering couple react differently to killing a beloved king -- and house guest for that matter -- they both show signs of guilt (father reminders, blood, amen, sleep) in differing matters. The parallel between their reaction to blood on the hands (literal and figurative) sets up their behavior in later scenes.

Tomorrow, we will have multiple choice, the rest of Act II, and a few other items relating to AP Lit.

I almost forgot my daily Fassbender picture...Wait until next semester when we get to Wuthering Heights and my daily Heathcliff/Ralph Fiennes photographs.
