Lesson Topic
julius Caesar
Lesson Outline
We studied the divergent morality of Cassius and Brutus by examining their disagreement over the necessity of taking bribes to pay their soldiers. We discussed and cited specific language suggesting that their dispute sounds more like a lover's quarrel than a disagreement about strategy. I continued to encourage Bobby to use the annotations more frequently to assist his understanding some of the language and had him "translate" numerous phrases into modern English . We then revised Bobby's study guide answers based on our class discussion of the Brutus/Cassius argument. Further, as next week we will be having a test on Acts I-III that requires interpretation of well known speeches or quotes, we worked on a practice question /quote. I explained the steps to employ in answering a short essay question based on a quotation from the play and Bobby drafted a response to the practice question. For homework due Monday, read pages 79-86 and answer study guide questions 4-6.
