Today's Goal: Read the climax of Romeo and Juliet, and ask ourselves: Are Romeo's actions due to fate or does he act out of free will?
The Plan:
- Read
- CLICK HERE for the Act II quiz.
- Act III, Scene I (we'll need some actors!)
Literary Climax: "that particular point in a narrative at which the conflict or tension hits the highest point. Climax is a structural part of a plot and is at times referred to as a crisis." (source)
Questions for your English Journal:
- What occurs in this scene that indicates to us that this is the climax?
- Romeo blames fate for the events of this scene. Where does he do this? Why?
- Is Romeo correct? Is fate to blame, or did he act out of free will?
Homework:
- Read your independent reading book at home
- Revise and resubmit your HOMS essay. There are directions on School Loop if you choose to do this.
