While second hour had a partner vocab quiz, fourth hour had a review of unit 3, which means their quiz will be tomorrow.
To liven up a humdrum analysis of Grendel, you performed dramatic interpretations of a scene from the text - these scenes involving the dragon (metaphorical or real), Unferth's brand of heroism, Wealtheow and her assault, the differentiation of legitimate violence and violence, the priests' and their brand of religious fervor, and the arrival of that muscular man, The Stranger. While it would be fun to act out novels and do nothing else in class, we actually used each scene as a starting point for analysis of the text and the chapter's main ideas, motifs, and whatnot.
The bell stopped our final thoughts in fourth hour, so if you have something else to add regarding the cessation of Grendel's life, prepare your observations now. Meanwhile, second hour ladies, we may have a delay during tomorrow's class, but that does not mean we can't analyze "The Wife's Lament" and the two interpretations that are present.
