May 6 - 10: 10th Grade World Lit

This Week: This week we will continue reading Macbeth. You will need a copy of the book everyday in class. As you are reading Macbeth, make sure that you are keeping up with your graphic organizer assignment. If you do not finish the assigned reading in class, finish it for homework. Keep up with the schedule posted on this blog. This week will also be our last vocab unit, Unit 13 - sentences are due Wednesday, May 8 at the beginning of class and the quiz is on Friday, May 10.

If you do not have a copy of Macbeth at home, SparkNotes has a "No Fear" translation of the play on their website. The "Modern Text" side of the page is easy-to-understand and is similar to the text in the graphic novel. This is the link to the first scene.
