Mon 19 Oct, 14:15-15:07 (includes a ~20 min break), run in the afternoon after the 11:00 Macbeth block was missed. Tracker was switched off in this chat until 20 Oct, so the planned opening (ten plot steps cold on paper, 'born of a woman', spellings, was Act 1 Sc 3 read) was NOT run and this log is written the next morning from the chat. Instead: Macbeth Act 1 Sc 3 prophecy work. Cold recall of the three prophecies (Glamis, Cawdor, king hereafter) with speaker (witches) right first time. Asked which title Macbeth already had: Glamis, and king a surprise - right; Cawdor was told to her as also news to him. 'Why does it matter that Cawdor comes true fast': 'it shows that they speak the truth' first time. Then one what-how-why paragraph built a sentence at a time: sentence 1 finished from a starter with Shakespeare as subject ('...to show that the witches speak the truth which makes Macbeth start to believe that he will become king'); for the how, 'I don't know' to a quotation ask, then after one narrowing hint she said 'for it to come true something bad will have to happen' (own idea); 'horrid image' was supplied by the tutor, not recalled; she wove it into sentence 2 and added a vague why ('makes the audience feel worried'). Final rewrite of the why (what the image is of, why it worries the audience) not done: she said 'times up'. 8 asks, 1 'I don't know', 0 blank, last one stopped. Typed slips: lanquige, suprised, becuse, thourght, somethig, allready, gladis. She first wrote her closing line as 'english lanquige'; corrected to Literature. No status changes.
FIRST, cold: the ten plot steps on paper (still owed from 12 Oct, check 'born of a woman' holds). Then one cold quotation ask on the prophecy scene with no list ('horrid image' was given to her, not recalled). Then finish the paragraph: she rewrites the why sentence saying what the horrid image is of (Macbeth imagining killing Duncan) and why that worries the audience. Spell because, surprised, already, thought, something. Ask if Act 1 Sc 3 was read at home.
Paragraph's why sentence still vague (what the 'horrid image' is of, why it worries the audience); quote not recalled cold. Ten plot steps cold on paper not run (owed since 12 Oct). Sc 3 'horrid image' aside to end still not read from the text.
| Topic | Name | Change | Evidence recorded |
|---|---|---|---|
| K1 | Developing → Developing | 19 Oct: what-how-why paragraph built one sentence at a time. what and how supplied via a sentence starter; quotation was tutor-supplied; why ('makes the audience feel worried') vague. Supported only, no unaided evidence, so no status change. | |
| K5 | Developing → Developing | 19 Oct: wrote 'Shakespeare makes...' as subject when given the starter 'Shakespeare makes the first prophecy come true quickly in order to'. Starter-prompted, so not counted as unaided evidence. | |
| S1.1 | Developing → Developing | 19 Oct: prophecy exchange (Glamis, Cawdor, king) recalled cold and Cawdor/Ross confirmation understood; 'horrid image' aside was told to her, not read from the text. Loose end on the unread aside and rest of Sc 3 stays open. | |
| K6.1 | Gap → Gap | 19 Oct typed slips: lanquige, suprised, becuse, thourght, somethig, allready, gladis. Common words again slipping in production; stays a gap. |
