We'll start with a NoRedInk.com MUGS quiz over Commonly Confused Words #1.
Remember, if you are not satisfied with the degree of your understanding, study, come to me for extra help and explanation, look for examples online, show me evidence of practice and I will let you retake the quiz to show your growth.
From there, we will explore Macbeth by looking at some famous lines from the play in one of the tools in the Google Drive. We'll try to determine what the line might be saying without having seen or read the rest of the play. The idea is to make a prediction based on an interpretation of the words and then see if it bears out. These are fairly famous lines -- let's see if we can figure out why.
You will then have time to work on your teaser posters. Think about how using a line of dialogue could transform those posters.
Finally, we can talk more about the projects. There are some more parts and pieces in the Google Drive to look at - show bible examples and such. And you can see the rubric that will be updated next week here.

Req'd Blog Post: Create a teaser poster for a new film version of Macbeth. Look at these examples of teaser posters, posters intended to generate interest well in advance of a movie coming out. They tend to be very minimal and only hint and suggest as what is to come in the film. They also tend to rely and on people already being somewhat familiar with the characters and/or story.
Examples of teaser posters here.
