Learning Log 3
Act 1 Scene 1 (Individual roles playing as witches)
Mrs Woo used her number selector the choose our group members. There are three people in a group to act out the three witches in the story of Act 1 Scene 1. When presenting, it would be quite embarassing as we have to use either a high pitch or a low pitch voice to act it out! I think when the day comes for our group to present, I hope I would be confident to speak in front of the whole class and be less nervous.
Lesson on Act 1 Scene 2
I find it very hard to understand Act 1 Scene 2 at first. But after teacher explain to the whole class, I felt it easier to understand although I still cannot understand some parts. Also, after reading the modern text, it is simpler and easier to understand. The summary of Act 1 Scene 2 is that The captain was telling King Duncan about the fight between Macbeth and Macdonwald. In the end Macbeth won. Then after those Irish soldiers retreated, the Norwegian King saw his chance to attack them with fresh troops and shiny weapons. But this did not frighten Macbeth and Banquo. They fought the new enemy even harder and in the end they won again. After that, The Thane of Ross and Angus enter. They told the King about the treaty. He could not bury his men until he retreated to Saint Colme's Inch and pay them ten thousand dollars.
Group Discussion on Comic Grid
For the group discussion, we exchange ideas of our own between our group members and we all decided to use Benjamin's one as his ideas was the best among us. Still, I added some lines of my own to improve it even better.
