It’s been a while since I posted, and I apologize for that. To assist with the Macbeth/Oedipus/Othello/Lit Terms hullaballoo this week, I have posted the following -

Macbeth Powerpoint Act I

Macbeth Powerpoint Act II

Macbeth Powerpoint Act III

Macbeth Powerpoint Act IV

Macbeth Powerpoint Act V

Macbeth Review Sheet

Oedipus Review Sheet

Othello Review Sheet

Here are the Literary Luminaries for Macbeth. If you are concerned about your analytical skillz, practice on these and bring them to me with questions.

Soliloquies for Literary Luminaries

Macbeth Literary Luminary I

Macbeth Literary Luminary 2

Macbeth Literary Luminary 3

Macbeth Literary Luminary 4

Macbeth Literary Luminary 5

And here are a few other goodies I have handed out – use these essay slow-mo sheets to help you plan future essays, which will be coming soon.

Not as soon as your college essays, which must be in by Blocksday, but soon nonetheless.

Essay Slow-Mo – Come to Thesis

Essay Slow-Mo – Cats and Dogs

And here is the lsit of lit terms that we should know thus far… I would make sure you add asyndeton, polysyndeton, aphorism, allusion, exposition, inciting incident, climax, idyll/pastoral, foreshadowing, simile, and metaphor to that list before your Othello Quiz on Blocksday.

Just in case you lost some of our papers, here are the handouts thus far.

If you actually see this, tell Mr. MacGregor “Banana, banana, I want a chili-dog.” He will be ecstatic.

Here are the papers from the first week, as well as the essay shorthand (for critiques) and the books used on the open-ended questions from previous AP exams. Also, the practice multiple choice test is reprinted here.
