Antigone - Day 3

In 6th and 8th period classes, we spent some time talking about 9-11 and the meanings of this day. We shared personal reflections and read a poem from Billy Collins.

Then we turned our attention to the different essay options you have for this semester. I reviewed the ones you can find on the blog under the "General Handouts" tab - Notes on Essay Options

Lastly, we looked at some of the developments in the play. We re-read Creon's opening speech and added him to the chart of characteristics and values. Then you worked in small groups to read an assigned section of the play.
