Solo Act

Context

The passage I chose is said by Artermidorus, he was writing or rereading a letter that he had written to send to Caesar. It simply said that Caesar should be aware of the people who trust the most, which are the conspirators, as they all have planned an idea to harm Caesar.

Why is it Important?

This paragraph or letter makes me feel like Shakespeare put it there so that it get the audience thinking what is going to happen or to get them waken up. It is Foreshadowing, if you read the book you would realize that before Caesar was killed he came through the crowd to present it to Caesar but he did not take it. I thought it made more suspense in away you would think that Caesar was going to read it and he would kill the conspirators and Rome would be thankful to Caesar as he killed betraying Romans.

Act 2 Scene 3

'Caesar, beware of Brutus; take heed of Cassius;
come not near Casca; have an eye to Cinna, trust not
Trebonius: mark well Metellus Cimber: Decius Brutus
loves thee not: thou hast wronged Caius Ligarius.
There is but one mind in all these men, and it is
bent against Caesar. If thou beest not immortal,
look about you: security gives way to conspiracy.
The mighty gods defend thee! Thy lover,
'ARTEMIDORUS.'
Here will I stand till Caesar pass along,
And as a suitor will I give him this.
My heart laments that virtue cannot live
Out of the teeth of emulation.
If thou read this, O Caesar, thou mayst live;
If not, the Fates with traitors do contrive.'

Learning Profile

I learn best…

I usually learn best when I am not explained every single step, like it says in

my profile I would rather be given the answer and instead of a sheet saying the

steps. I don’ t focus when I am explained the steps as it is impossible to get all

the information in my head through one conversation. It is almost the same

problem when I am reading, if I wanted to remember a book I would have to

watch the movie to understand the book.

I need to…

I think that I need to be more focused even though it is really difficult; I think

it would be helpful for me to tell or inform my teachers on how I work best. It

would also help me to go after school and ask for help.

Strategies that help me learn…

The strategies that would help me in my learning would be to ask teachers

more questions and be able to have a time at home where I can just do my

homework and not be distracted my the T.V or laptop. Another way that

possibility would be to go to homework help where it is quiet and I could ask

teachers question.

I would like my teachers to know this about me...

I think that I would really like my teachers to know that I am very easily

distracted and that it is really difficult for me to listen to the teacher when they

explain steps. Also, It would be nice for the teachers to make more hands on

activities just like the beginning, since October classes have not been planning

to many hands on activities.
