Contemplation: The act of mind in considering with attention; meditation; study; continued attention of the mind to a particular subject.
Why do we continue to ignore repeated warnings (consciously or subconsciously) about what may happen in the future? Why do we ignore the past, which could warn us of the present or the future?

Slide4Julius Caesar Act III: Scene IThe soothsayer warns Caesar again. Artemidorus also tries to warn Caesar, but he brushes him off. Metellus Cimber presents a petition to Caesar: he wishes to have his banished brother forgiven. Caesar denies him. The other conspirators try to insist, but Caesar denies them all. Then the assassination begins. Casca stabs him first, and the other conspirators follow, last of all Brutus. Caesar dies, shocked.In the aftermath, the conspirators know they need to address the Roman people and deal with Mark Antony. Antony asks the conspirators to let him die with Caesar. Brutus refuses to kill him and promises him a place in the new government. When Antony asks for permission to speak at the funeral, Cassius objects, but Brutus agrees—long as Brutus gets to address the crowd first. In private, Antony begs Caesar's pardon for being friendly with the conspirators and reveals that he hopes to incite a riot. A messenger from Octavius arrives with news that Octavius is approaching Rome in response to Antony’s invitation.

"We read one scene a day. By reading a tiny bit each day we were able to stop periodically and try to figure out what was going on. We discussed words and meanings and intonations, but for the most part we just read the play." -Cindy Rollins

Slide7Prepositions
A preposition is a Part of Speech that indicates the relationship, often spatial (space or location), of one word to another. Usually followed by a noun or a pronoun (or a gerund).
Examples:
"She paused at the gate.""This tomato is ripe for picking.""Some to the common pulpits, and cry out Liberty, freedom, and enfranchisement!""Civilization's going to pieces," How can a prepositional phrase help you identify the subject and the verb of a sentence?

The Ancient Myth of Daedalus and Icarus
Daedalus was a craftsman who built a labyrinth for King Minos to imprison a Minotaur. Ironically, King Minos imprisoned Daedalus and his son Icarus in the labyrinth instead. They escaped the labyrinth. Then, Daedalus fashioned wings out of wax and feathers for himself and Icarus. Daedalus tried his wings first; but before trying to escape the island, he warned his son not to fly too close to the sun, but to follow him on his path. Excited to fly, and sure of himself, Icarus soared high into the sky. But he came too close to the sun, and its heat melted the wax in his wings. Icarus kept flapping his wings, but the feathers had fallen away. Icarus fell to his death.

"Don't forget your helmet and your other gear. Always wear your gear!" He warned.Two days later, David ran home from school, hopped onto his bike, and rode to the park. He scoffed at the pile of protective gear and left it behind.He and his friends were trying to ride the rails. The third time in, David coldn't save himself. Crash! It felt and looked as if his wrist was broken. His friends called 911 and David's father."What happened?" His father asked. Before David could answer, he looked at David's wrist and said, "Never mind. I know: You flew too close to the sun."
