Feb+13-17


 * Monday:**

Today we read Act I of the abridged version of //A Midsummer Night's Dream//. Then, we created chants to warn a character about the potential consequences of their actions.


 * Tuesday:**

Today we wrote in our writers' journals using one of the following prompts:

· Love and hate are two very intense emotions. How is it possible that someone can feel two diametrically opposed emotions at the same time? Can you think of a time when you felt those two passions at the same time?

· The relationship between Oberon and Titania centers around a power struggle. Think about a power struggle you have experienced in your life. What are the motives on each side of this tug-of-war? Explain both your motives and the other person’s motives.

Then we read Act II of the abridged version of //A Midsummer Night's Dream//.


 * Wednesday:**

Today we read Act III of the abridged version of //A Midsummer Night's Dream//. Then, we complete a group think activity.


 * Thursday:**

Today we wrote in our writers' journals using one of the following prompts:

· Have you ever had a dream that was so realistic and moving that you found it hard to believe it was only a dream? Describe the dream, explaining what kind of effect it had on you.

· Oberon’s love potion had an instant effect on lovers in this play. Do you know of anyone who fell in love at first sight? Do you believe in love at first sight? Write your own ideas about love, explaining what would be most important to you if you fell in love.

Then we read Act IV of the abridged version of //A Midsummer Night's Dream//.
