Shakespeare

Place comments at the bottom of this page. Hi girls, Kate sent me the Shakespeare information that I had sent out in March. With some of the changes we needed, this should work: Every class will have a rotation on Mon. June 7th Tues. June 8th that will last about 12 minutes. We will be ready with the next group every 15 min. The following are covered and the ones that are unclaimed could be covered in your class on your own, if you are so inspired. DK - Carolyn and Shelley will introduce the War of the Roses in DK //AK - Donna will discuss shields / coat of armor in AK - This is cut because we are rotating on a Tues.// 1 - Kate and Sally will introduce the music of the army at Agincourt in Gr.1 2 - Suzi and Bonnie will retell the story with finger / regular puppets in Art room 3 - Mary will introduce Castles in Gr. 3 4 - Judy will discuss English food vs French compared to our food &probably will incorporate a map in Gr. 4 5 - Marie will introduce Wm Shakespeare in her treasure chest from last year in Gr. 5 Unclaimed topics: 1. Tennis balls and diplomacy (Erich tells me that that had something to do with the fact that Henry's early life as a playboy, life-of-the-party was well known. As a result the message from the French was to say, don't bother with war, just go play another frivolous game to keep yourself out of trouble!) 2. Art 3. Court life and courtship 9:00 All classes go to the next higher grade (DK to 1st, 1st to 2nd . etc. 5th to DK) 9:15 switch 9:30 switch 9:45 - 10:10 All classes take a break for bathroom, drinks and snacks. 10:10 switch 10:25 switch 10:40 switch Some ideas to review in class after the rotations: 1. A Review the story of Henry V 2. A Review Wm. Shakespeare 3. A Review highlights of the mornings rotations.

5/10 = remember we are doing "Meet your new teacher/ class" on Fri. June 4th, from 10 - 10:15.

5/3 = Judy here, We will be doing this on Tues, Mary. Keep Ben West day the same. For June 8th, I will be including a map of Northern Europe that will be labeled with Agincourt and perhaps (I'm still figuring this out, but I wanted to get to the wikispace!) there will be pictures and maybe some strange things to smell or taste.

Did we decide the date to be Monday June 7 or Tuesday June 8? Sally -did we try to or decide to change BW day??
