  • Take 2: Please get the complete Fairy Lyrics Analysis worksheet (see Google Drive for worksheet. Please complete activities 8-10 and turn it in to your named folder.)
  • As a preparation for the final test and essay, we will practice working with some journals about the topics to come. Please keep a running Notability document to chronicle several journals until you are able to use them to create a more in-depth piece. Journals should range from 1/2-1 whole page:
    • Journal 1: Why do you think Shakespeare created two worlds so different from each other within one play? What thematic purpose is served by having the young lovers cross over from the rational world to the mystical world?  (Please do this journal at the end of all MSND Study Guide questions. Use quotes to explain your opinions. The more thorough you write, the more you will help yourself out later.)
HOMEWORK:
  • Finish Fairy Lyrics Analysis and Journal 1.
