Today, we finished reading Act II. It is interesting to note that the murder and its discovery is not in Act III and therefore, not the climax of the play. Hmmm. I wonder what is to come. We shall be revisited by the discussion of bloody hands and Lady Macbeth, later in the play. Are you playing attention to all of the references to blood - that in itself would be an interesting study (it shows up 23 times, and bloody appears 14 more times).
Please ensure you complete your paragraph discussions about the evnts that occur around the time of Duncan's death - could horses really eat each other?
Also, please ensure you are prepared to read your next set of parts aloud on Monday. I'll try to balance things so that everyone gets a chance to read some of the longer speeches - try not to feel like you're being picked on if it works out that you get some big parts issued to you back-to-back.
For Monday Act III, scenes 1 - 3, please read:
Scene 1:
Banquo: Jake
Macbeth: Kohl
Lady Macbeth: Aisha
First Murderer: Chelsea
Second Murderer: Ben
Scene 2:

Have a nice weekend.
