Quote Test on Acts I and II will take place after we finish reading these acts in class.
Quote Test on Acts III and IV will take place after we finish reading these acts in class.
Everyone needs to find a critical article, have it approved by me, and write a 300 word abstract. This abstract is due when we have finished reading the play.
We will be watching 2 productions of Othello. After each production, you will turn in a short (1,000 word) paper concerning some aspect of the production. You must have a thesis that is literary, specific, and arguable. You must cite from the 'text' for support and clarification of your thesis.
Every student should be working on the image cluster you were assigned in class. You may work on these in groups. You should include a) the quotation with act, scene and line, b) a brief explanation of how the language is being used and c) an explanation of effect. Finally, you need to develop 2-3 assertions as to the relationship between your image cluster and themes of the play. This is due when we finish reading the play.
