Objective: SWBAT describe how sub-plots in a play can be used to mirror the play’s main plot.
Do-Now: Why do you believe a person can love someone who does not love them back? Do you believe that, if someone is persistent, they may eventually get the other person to love them back? Explain.
Today: 1) Class will read Act 1, Scene 2. How does this scene mirror the conflicts in the first scene? How is the scene used to create humor in the play?
2) Class will watch the first act of “A Midsummer Night’s Dream.”
3) In groups, students will read Act 2, Scene 1 pp. 33-41 and answer the following questions:
1) Describe the fairy, Puck (Robin) based on how he describes himself and how the other fairy describes him.
2) Describe the conflict between Titinia and Oberon (according to Puck.)
3) Describe the confrontation between Titinia and Oberon.
Exit Slip: What has the film version clarified for you about the play? That is, what did you not understand about the play that is now more clear to you now that you’ve seen it performed?
