ENGLISH – 3rd trimester – Day 45
 
·         CHECK: 10+ lines of Shakespeare for recital
·         COLLECT: 22 questions/answers Act 3

o   List 3 things from the play that prove that Juliet is a DYNAMIC and complicated person.
·         Next, find this quote from Juliet and answer the following 3 questions:
o   “Well, thou hast comforted me marvelous much.” (Act 3, Scene 5)
 
1.      Who is Juliet speaking to?
2.      Look at the big speech just above this quote…what was recommended to Juliet?
3.      What is the subtext of this line...in other words, what do you imagine Juliet was thinking while she was saying this?

OR
  20   Come, gentle night, come, loving, black-brow'd night,  21   Give me my Romeo; and, when he shall die,  22   Take him and cut him out in little stars,  23   And he will make the face of heaven so fine  24   That all the world will be in love with night 25   And pay no worship to the garish sun.
