Read / Analyze act 1 scenes 4-6.
Guided / Independent
Complete study questions from handout in notebooks.
Yesterday, you wrote down some character traits from the biographies in the front of the book. Now that you have read much of ACT 1, add a character trait to Macbeth, Lady Macbeth, Banquo and Duncan and identify the page number and the quote where you found this information. Do this in your notebooks so you can use it as reference on the next essay assignment.
Example:
Lady Macbeth is aggressive like men are suppose to be, not women. Page 33 - "...make me less like a woman and more like a man and fill me with deadly cruelty!"
Check for understanding
when you have completed one for each character (total of 4 quotes/examples), call me over to show me so you receive credit for your work.
Closure
Review study guide questions and answers.
Make predictions based on the kind of people each of the above are like. If Duncan was strong and not gullible, might things have been different?
