Today we completed our dramatic reading of Romeo and Juliet; we discussed who was most guilty for their demise. We gathered evidence from our book and entered it on Journal entry #2.
We recorded the proper procedure to construct a "block style" letter to the Prince of Verona.
We began watching a video reviewing the importance of Shakespeare in our world.
We corrected SS #69.
