I have to whittle Romeo & Juliet down to two weeks.

notajournalist:

This means finding the most important scenes from each act and still making sure the kids get the whole story.  I’m not sure how to do this.  Plus I have to make sure they still learn : Soliloquy, monologue, pun tragedy, comedy, aside, chorus, farce, oxymoron, foil, paradox, comic relief, tragic hero, stage directions, dialogue, dialect, dramatic point of view, dramatic irony.  Ugh.

I technically could take a month with it, but I’d like to have two weeks of EOC review/practice.  These kids are going to pass that test, dang it!

Signal boost.  I know a few English teachers that might be able to help!
