Act 2.2-2.4 & Movie


What will I be able to do when I've finished this lesson?  
I can be familiar with the general plot of Act 2 in Macbeth.  I can identify passages where Macbeth, Lady Macbeth, or Macduff shows leadership qualities as I work toward my final assessment speech .  I can list the types of information politicians use in stump speech openings based performances on current politicians.

Admire the artwork hanging on the walls!
  1. Read Act 2.2-2.4 and answer Guiding Reading Questions (handout given in class or digital copy on side bar)
