Julius Caesar Peep Show Slideshow

June 3: Othello, Test Corrections, Optional Test

Students read a prose version of Othello, answered comprehension questions, and identified character traits of characters. Students were given grade reports and instructions to turn in late work (by Friday), research paper corrections (by Monday).

Students were given the following instructions for making test corrections to the Julius Caesar test:

TEST ASSESSMENT/CORRECTIONS: due Tuesday, June 9
On a separate sheet of paper, answer the following questions (assuming you studied)
– 1) How did you study vocabulary?
– 2) How did you study quotes?
– 3) How did you study characters?
– 4) How did you study for questions 1-42 on the review sheet?

On the “Part 1” handout (you were given this on Monday, June 1 and probably already stapled your scantron to it), highlight the numbers you missed (they are marked on your scantron).
You will receive ¼ of a point per point missed on Part 1 when you complete the following (A, B, C)

(A) VOCABULARY (1-25)
• Re-define the vocabulary words. (Yes, that means to look them up again and write them again. You may do this on the “Part 1” handout.)
(B) QUOTES (26-39) Answer all questions about each quote you missed.
• Who is speaking these lines?
• What do they mean? What is the speaker talking about?
• Why was the speaker saying them? To whom was the speaker talking?
(C) CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS (40-49)
• For each character you missed, write
– his/her name
– 3 ways to describe him/her
• For example: CAESAR
1. killed by his friend
2. ambitious
3. deaf in one ear

Staple the following together, with the scantron on top:
1. scantron 2. separate sheet of paper with questions 1-4 answered 3. “Part 1” handout with test items

Students have the option to take an "OPTIONAL TEST" next week.
• If your test average is low, you can try to boost it by taking an optional test after school on Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday of next week. (June 8, 9, 10)
• You must let Mrs. Woodliff know by Monday if you plan on taking the test.

June 1 - Peep Shows Presented

Students...

1. Turned in Othello vocabulary
2. Presented Peep Shows
3. Presented Make-up Research Presentations
4. Julius Caesar Test Assessment

Make-up Presentations:
•If the presentation wasn't saved to the “Turn in Work Here” folder on the y-drive, students lost the opportunity to present their PowerPoint. Flash drives are not accepted. The assignment was to turn the presentation into the assigned folder.
•If this is the case, they need to save their PowerPoint to that folder, and Mrs. Woodliff will grade it later. They will not receive points for presenting, but you will receive points for the PowerPoint itself (which was the bulk of the grade.)
