A.P. Lit Is Waiting: April 6, 2015

Focus: What does it mean to wait?

1. Warming up with "I Am Waiting"
  • MMM approach: What strikes you about this poem?
  • What does it mean to wait? Does it make you powerful? Vulnerable? Hopeless? Hopeful?
  • What are you waiting for?

2. Building a little background knowledge on the Theatre of the Absurd and Absurdist protagonists

3. Starting to act out Waiting for Godot with focus questions


HW:
Continue to build ideas for your culminating essay; start gathering old books, looking through your childhood stuff, reworking your prompt, etc.  I will start giving you feedback on your prompts and booklists this afternoon.
