May 4, Julius Caesar Review Work

The following is a copy of instructions that will be given to students on Monday, May 4.

1. Check your folders if you were absent Thursday or if you want any work that might be graded. (Papers are not graded yet; you will get them back next week.)


2. Watch video of Julius Caesar Acts I & II.


3. Vocabulary Practice. Complete the cinquains and sentences, and match vocabulary words with pictures that illustrate/represent them. (Keep these and check the blog for hints or answers.)


4. Paraphrasing Practice. Work in pairs to paraphrase, in Animaniac fashion, these lines from Brutus and Cassius. Use the modern version (there are 2 copies at the back of the packet, one for each of you) when trying to write Dot’s paraphrases. See examples on the board. (and an example of one paraphrase below)


5. Act II Sequencing This is page 8 in the Act II packet (the last page). Work with your partner to put these in order and answer the questions when applicable.


6. HOMEWORK: STUDY FOR THE TEST. If you lost your review, check the “Extras 10” folder in the crate!
