English 8/9 (1)

Today students began by completing a quiz on the terms provided last class.

Students then looked over a poem by Lois Burdett based on Romeo and Juliet's Act I, scene 3.  Students then read through this scene and the next (scene 4) in the readers.  Students were asked to create a short four line rhyming poem based on scene 4.

We then watched the Franco Zeffirelli movie up to scene 3.  Students then had ten minutes to complete their response booklets.
