Here's today's recap!
English 8
The legacy of Anne Frank is one of hope. She famously said: "In spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart." Hers is a story of believing in the goodness in people and continuing to spread goodness, no matter how terrible things seem. As you work on your journal entries tonight, I want you to think about that quote, and how Anne's experiences still allowed her to feel that there is goodness in the world.
English 9
Lord Capulet gathered all of his resources to prepare the wedding for Wednesday morning. Unfortunately, when the Nurse went to wake Juliet that morning, she was "dead." Lady Capulet reacted to this by mourning the loss of her only child who brought her joy and comfort. The Nurse was so distressed that she couldn't put her thoughts together and was very repetitive. Lord Capulet lamented how the joyous day they'd planned was ruined. Paris, however, made Juliet's death about Juliet, stating that Death had tricked and deceived her. Friar Lawrence scolded the Capulets for only caring about how Juliet's marriage could improve their station. A very odd, very silly conversation between Peter and the musicians followed this.
