Do Now: Read Aloud (II.i 181-end)
Summary: Claudio wanted to get married to Hero the next day but Leonato told him to wait at least a week. During this time, Don Pedro will take on an impossible task: to make Benedick and Beatrice fall in love with each other. Leonato, Claudio, and Hero agree to help him.
Pair Share: Create a list of "labels" that can be associated with people. Write your lists on the board.
Group Work: Think about how Don John has been labeled a "bastard" and how this has affected his character.
Create your Respect-for-all Tissue Box by choosing one of the labels on the board. Feel free to decorate your tissue box. Discuss with your groups some of the ways you will generate curiosity and conversation about your tissue box.
We spent the last 15-20 minutes of class working on our tissue boxes. We will have to carry these around with us for 24 hours and basically just ask people to write down on a small index card what comes to mind when they see the specific label you chose and put it in the box. The responses should be anonymous.
