April 24, 2026

 Hello! Let's get back to it:

  • Checking in
  • How'd the last couple of days go?
  • New Schedule
  • Recapping background on Shakespeare
    • A video!
    • Five Acts and the Plot Triangle
    • Iambic pentameter
      • Try it out!
    • Intro to the play
      • Much Ado:
        • Play on words in the title
        • Role of gender and actors
        • Importance of Beatrice
        • Keep remembering: this is a silly, silly play
      • Romeo and Juliet
        • While there are beautiful testaments to love, don't interpret this as a love story
        • Remember the guiding question
        • Bonus English stuff: The sonnet!
    • Reviewing everyone's character charts
  • Reading aloud 1.1
    • Everyone will need to read at least once during this play (I'll keep track on my checkmark thing). I'll give a heads up when there are really short lines for those who don't like it.
  • Walk!
  • Act it out!
  • Film version?
