Final Blog

We are so close to the end. I'm so amazed as to how quickly this year has gone. There is so much more I'd like to share with you. There are poems, books, and songs that you need to be exposed to. There is still Bob Dylan songs that you need to hear.

All you need to do for your last blog is to answer two questions.

Question 1:
What was your favorite assignment and why?
Question 2:
What was your least favorite assignment and why?


Have a great summer and I will see you next year.

Ahhhh the toga

We are going to be putting on Julius Caesar. I want to make sure everyone is aware of how to put on a toga. So here are a couple of websites on how to do so. Enjoy. Write a comment after you have finished watching.

Julius Caesar/Mean Girls

So many of Shakespeare's plays are similar to films today. Watch this four minute comparison of Julius Caesar and "Mean Girls." After viewing the clip, do you agree that they are simliar or does the comparison not work? Also think of other films that you think might make for a better comparison.
