Portfolio

Students have been working diligently to complete portfolios in class. Please submit any work that you may have at home. I will be collecting all worksheets and keeping what is needed for the portfolio.

macbeth Background information Graphic organizer

This file has the information that students should have collected for a class activity. For the exam, students will need to write an essay similar to the one they have written for this activity. I have noticed that many of these essays were lacking details that were collected in the charts. For whatever reason, if you are missing information from page 2 of the Macbeth packet, I have attached the file.
