Opening: Finish quote sharing from yesterday.
Work Time
Part One: Work in partners or small groups and present the parody you found for homework last night. In your notebooks, answer the following questions:
1. What issues do the parodies your group looked at address?
2. Why do you think people create parodies about serious issues?
3. How do these parodies and other current genres pertain to this class? How is it all connected?
Part Two: Women Who Changed the Course PowerPoint presentation. Take Notes.
Closure
Discussion on your first major assignment!
Homework: Choose a woman in history or a decade that you would like to research.
Bonus points: At the end of class, Shakespear's Macbeth was mentioned. While the mother-son relationship may not be the first theme you consider when analyzing the play, there is definitely something there. In Act IV, sc. 2, Lady Macduff has a conversation with her son. Why do you think this conversation was included in the play? How does this connect to our discussion in class today? Been a while since you read the play? Haven't read the play? Look up the scene anyway! It is #interesting. :)
