Jump Off -- Those of you who like using a study guide, pick up a copy from the front table. Otherwise, open up your notebook/take out a sheet of paper. We will kick off class today with a viewing and discussion of Act IV, scene i (revisiting the activity from last class).
S. the C. -- agenda/rationale/HW
Film/Discussion -- Act VI, scene i of Kenneth Branagh's Hamlet......and Beyond!
--finish our interpretation (run this by each individual class--1 ACE did first three lines--must continue building an interpretation; 3 ACE/1 BDF/2 BDF still building an interpretation)/act out?!?!
--view scene i, then engage in conversation as follows:
*analyze our interpretation and Branagh's interpretation of Act IV, scene i, evaluating how each version interprets the source text
--finish viewing the film, responding to study guide prompts/questions and/or jotting down notes as preparation for discussion (Mr. Martin will be using the "Discussion Contribution Rating Scale"--an overall discussion score will be given for all students at the end of Qtr. 4)
--engage in discussion
Transition -- re-row desks
Closure -- Making Predictions
--How do you think Act V will "play out"? Support your predictions with specifics from the text.
