Objective: SWBAT evaluate Othello’s reasons for killing Desdemona.
Do-Now: Describe how Iago was able to convince Othello that Desdemona was having an affair with Cassio. Do you predict Othello will give Desdemona a chance to explain herself before he punishes her? Explain.
Today: 1) Class will begin reading Act 5, Scene 2 pp. 271-283, examining Othello’s soliloquy as he decides to kill Desdemona.
2) Class will watch the film version of the scene from "Othello"
3) Continue working on "Othello" project
Exit Slip: Was Othello justified in killing Desdemona? Why do you believe he felt that murder was the only way to punish her for being unfaithful?
