8th Grade--2/27

Today we began class by taking our final reading comprehension quiz on Taming of the Shrew. After the quiz, we briefly discussed the play with a focus on Katherina's transition and the idea of gender in the novel. After this, we performed the "obedience bet" scene from Act 5, Scene 2. Don't forget to turn in your permission slips for Friday's field trip! I also collected your books to grade annotations, so please turn in your books if you have not done so already. I will return them to you within 24 hours.
