Today we looked at the "Harfleur speech" from the beginning of Act 3 (scene 1). Before Monday's class, please ensure you do the following:
a) find three quotations from the speech that you find to be motivating or inspiring.
b) write your own speech (people often write about sports) that meets the following guide lines:
* about 15 lines long
* colourful adjectives and adverbs
* powerful verbs (ex. instead of "run" try "charge" or "attack")
* employ some figurative language such as metaphors or similes (ex. "our defenders are a wall" or we
will crush them like the fleas that they are")
Enjoy your weekend
