Monday, October 31

Objective: SWBAT evaluate the effectiveness of figurative language in Othello.

Do-Now: Have you ever been accused of something you didn’t do?  What were you accused of?  How did it make you feel to be accused?  What did you do/say in an attempt to free yourself from blame?  Did the person who blamed you ever realize the truth?

Today: 1) Figurative Language: simile, metaphor, personification and hyperbole.

2) Class will begin to read Act 4, Scene 2 examining Othello’s use of figurative language as he insults Desdemona.

3) In groups, students will finish reading Act 4, Scene 2.  Answer the following questions: Why is Roderigo upset at Iago?  How does Iago respond?  What is Iago’s new plan?


Homework: Find THREE more examples of Figurative Language to add to your chart (for a total of SIX).  Answer the three questions about the end of Act 4, Scene 2.
