Twelfth Night Worksheet

I have had a few questions about the handout from yesterday.

It is basically a worksheet to guide you in collecting information about the play. You can't complete it all because we haven't read the whole play yet.

You are to locate definitions for the terms listed at the bottom (exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution) and also do a bit of research to find out what you can learn about the five-act play structure. You can find this in your textbook and also online.

You are to fill it out as much as you can (only exposition and rising action on the plot diagram) with what we were assigned to read. We will use that to lead discussion and participate in lecture in class on Thursday this week.

In class on Thursday last week, I assigned reading Act I and Act II (this includes all scenes in Act I and Act II). I have not assigned any further reading beyond that. DO NOT COME TO CLASS WITHOUT READING ACT I AND II.
