Objective: SWBAT describe how suspense is created in the final Act of Othello.
Do-Now: Describe Iago’s plan for getting rid of Cassio. What might possibly go wrong with this plan? Do you believe Iago will be able to see this plan through successfully? Explain why or why not using evidence from the play.
Today: 1) Class will read Act 5, Scene 1. What has gone “wrong” with Iago’s plan? How is Iago able to mislead everyone into believing what he wants them to?
2) Re-read Iago’s aside in the beginning of Scene 1. What can you infer about Iago’s character based on his innermost thoughts?
3) Begin watching "Othello."
Exit Slip: Why is Bianca getting blamed for what happened to Cassio at the end of Scene 1? How is her character being called into question here? What might Iago be trying to say about women? (Think about his previous comments on women.)
