Question of the Day: What is your favourite word or saying? The title of the blog today is a line my sister and I always say to each other when we can't make a decision. It is the title of a romance novel that my mom read (not to us) when we were kids. We just thought the title was so silly.
Warm-up:
Theatre Production and Drama: Do you know what the following words or phrases mean? I had to look up three of them. They appeared in a novel I'm reading. The others are words that either don't sound like what they are or words I like to use:
crepuscular
pulchritude
febrile
inchoate
obstreperous
loquacious
ingenuous
taciturn
avuncular
elles sont partout
If you don't know what they mean, look them up! Try and use them in a sentence.
Art 8:
Create a crepuscular (see above) scene in your sketch book! Bring it to our Zoom meeting at 12:30 on Thursday. Everyone should attend! It is the last one.
Lesson:
Drama 9/10 (A Block): Send me a plot idea for a play you could present entirely on Zoom. It's a pitch -- make it one sentence.
Drama 9/10 (B Block): Memorize your Shakespeare scene! You want to use good diction and lots of expression when you present it.
Art 8: Work on your art installation.
Theatre Production 11: Present your theatre history project (you can record it or we can set up a Zoom.)
I have posted marks for report cards, but they are subject to change. I have to be in the school tomorrow morning and will work on the marks then. I have to have them submitted by Friday at 3.
"Nothing is as nothing does." I don't remember who said it, but it's been a strange, nonsensical word of advice I've always liked.
ReplyDeleteShakespeare said, (in King Lear), "nothing will come of nothing". Not quite what you're saying.
ReplyDeleteAha! Thanks very much. I shall go check that out.
