Objective: SWBAT describe how a song can be used as foreshadowing in a play.
Do-Now: Based on Othello’s actions, do you believe he is now fully convinced that Desdemona is cheating on him? What might he do now because he believes she cheated? What evidence from the text leads you to believe this?
Today: 1) Class will read Act 4, Scene 3 and answer the following questions: How can Desdemona’s “Willow” song be viewed as foreshadowing? What might be about to happen next in the play?
2) Re-read Emilia’s monologue at the end of the scene. Written Response: What are Emilia’s opinions on husbands and marriage?
Homework: "Addressing Emilia's Arguments" : Write TWO paragraphs (minimum 10 sentences) in which you explain WHY you agree or disagree with each of Emilia's arguments about why women cheat on their husbands. Ultimately, you need to explain whether or not you agree with Emilia that it is the husband's fault if his wife cheats.
