What shall Brutus Do? (and GROW)

Today's Goal: We're going to get in the head of Brutus and the tough decision he feels he has to make. Also, we'll learn some comma rules.

The Plan:

1. Read! Yay!
2. Self-evaluate your English Journal (I'll show you how to do this.)
3. GROW notes. We're restructuring this. Let me know what you think.
4. Read a short soliloquy by Brutus at the beginning of ACT II.
5. Write a little bit (You may not put your chromebook away until I PERSONALLY give you the okay.)

Evaluate your English Journal

Today you're going to evaluate your English Journal. You'll need to open it in one tab and this SCORING GUIDE in another tab.

Copy and paste this into your English Journal at the top. and complete the blanks based on the scoring guide.

I believe I have earned a _________ (enter a number from the scoring guide) on my English Journal because _______________________________(explain why you earned that score based on the scoring guide).

TODAY'S ENGLISH JOURNAL WRITING:

What decision is Brutus going to make about Caesar? Using his soliloquy (II.i.10-35), explain Brutus' reasoning for this decision.

Homework:

• Complete work you haven't completed. Catch yourself up.
• COME TO THE WRITING CENTER AFTER SCHOOL FOR ADDITIONAL SUPPORT OR USE OF THE CHROMEBOOKS. (not required, but highly highly highly encouraged.)
