The handout familiarizes students with three different methods for framing quotations: the block quotation, the clause-and-colon method, and the integration of key words and phrases within one's own sentence. (2 pages)
• Outline Template: Provide students with the scaffolding necessary to write a five-paragraph essay. This outline template challenges students to fill in a text box for every part of their essay: hook, thesis, topic sentences, evidence, analysis, and conclusion. (3 pages)
• Assessment Rubric: Evaluate student essays in a quick and efficient manner by using an analytical writing rubric. (1 page)

SUMMARY:

In Venice, Iago is furious about being overlooked for promotion and plots to take revenge against his General, Othello, the Moor of Venice. Iago manipulates Othello into believing his wife Desdemona is unfaithful, stirring Othello's jealousy. In Othello, Shakespeare delves into the human condition and how we respond to jealousy, deception, loyalty, and treachery. Will Othello reflect our own sentiments or not? Would we be driven to murder as well?

This 10th - 12th grade canonized work allows students to delve into the importance of what happens when we don't check our loyalties and love. Can we be too ambitious? Can one person show both heroic and villainous sides at the same time?
