We have read Act I and you were given a quiz prior to break. PLEASE make sure you are reading ahead. When you return, you will be expected to have completed Act II, in addition to the handouts that were given out in class on soliloquies/asides (#103) and characterization (#105).

Students were given a reading check (quiz) on Act II. If they failed the quiz, you were asked to get your parent's signature and to complete the questions at the end of Act II.

As a reward for those students working hard: If you do not receive any zero's on the in-class quizzes, you may use your notes during the exam to assist you.
Remember: You will also be expected to recite your memorized soliloquy or aside from Macbeth. These recitations are the oral portion of your midterm and are not optional. Please come prepared. (If you are unable to recite your 8-10 lines, your exam grade will be reduced one letter grade.)
