macbeth

Macbeth is the most popular play that been play since ages. it is one of popular Shakespeare's play.
what i know from my reading is that, the play, loosely based upon the historical account of King Macbeth of Scotland by Raphael In the theatrical world, many superstitions are associated with "Macbeth," all connected with the belief that the play is somehow "cursed." Many actors will not mention the name of the play aloud, referring to it as "the Scottish Play". it is a fun play to watch because i love movie that fill which voilence. and the message that the play want to portrayed is clearly to understand. it shows that, because of the greed in Macbeth to be a king, at the end of the story he was killed. another things that is very interesting about this story is the costumes. it is so different from other play. it looks weird but nice and look so rich. as a conclusion, this story is very interesting.

wallah

the first drama that we watch for this subject. actually i am a person that like to watch old movie. before i watch that movie, i feel very excited to watch and i already thought that it must be a black and white movie. but what i thought that the story is interesting is actually wrong. i don't understand the story at all. it is so hard to understand what is actually the story want to convey. but when it reach at the funny scene, i laugh even though sometime i don't understand what is the funny thing thing happened. until the end of the story, i still cannot understand. what i know is just the girl keep fighting with the man, but after that she get back with him.

simulated teaching

our first simulated teaching for this subject this semester. this semester, we do it with Miss Baiti. but there is something different for this semester.we have to evaluate others by fill in some form.Miss Baiti have already given us the form before we done our simulated teaching. we have to photocopy it for all for them to evaluate us. in the form, there is also the guidelines for us to know which and what to evaluate. what i would like to focus on is that, how i grade others and how others grade me.
how i grade others is based on their performance and based on their language that has been used. the performance is during their set induction and the while reading stage. it is also been focusing on the exercise that they have design, how they arrange the lesson and many more. how people grade me, i cannot tell more because i haven't done my simulated teaching yet. but i think that others will grade me just like what i am focusing on.

steetcar named desire

a streetcar named desire is a play based on the books written by Tennessee William. this play is about two siblings who choose to live in a different live. Stella and Blanche is the main character. Stella lives in a simple life with her husband, Stanley. but things change when Blanche come to live with them. Blanche is a person who have to face with many problems in her life until she have problems with her mental. Stanley don't really like Blanche actually but because of his desire towards what Blanche have, he raped Blanche when Stella is at the hospital, giving birth for their baby. Stella didn't believe when Blanche said that Stanley raped her and Stanley said that Blanche is crazy. they decided to send Blanche to the mental hospital. that was the end. but the play is interesting than others and it is more easy to understand.

set induction - Miss Baiti

After finishing examine about Oedipus Rex, Miss Baiti told us that we need to do the set induction for the play and we have to focus on the theme of the play only. for me, set induction is very important because it is the first step for the teacher to activate students schemata and it is they way for the teacher to greet student's attention during the lesson. the set induction was well conduct but i am not really sure about mine. i am quite nervous at that time. but the most interesting that i find during the session is when Priya do the set induction. it is very interesting and she involves all the students during the activity. it is really relate to the lesson and she can get the students attention.

Teiresias..

Teiresias is some sort of fortune teller who tell prophecies to others who need his help. He is a blind person and different story were told for the causes of his blindness. the basic story that i know is that he is blind cause by the god and it is because he reveals their secrets to others.
In Oedipus The King, Oedipus, the king of Thebes, calls Tiresias to lead in the investigation of the killing of the previous king Laius. At first, Tiresias refuses to give a direct answer and instead hints that the killer is someone Oedipus really does not wish to find. However, after being provoked to anger by Oedipus' accusation first that he has no foresight and then that Tiresias had had a hand in the murder, he reveals that in fact it was Oedipus himself who had (unwittingly) committed the crime. Outraged, Oedipus throws him out of the palace, but then afterwards realises the truth.
In my personal opinion, Teiresias is a noble person but it is normal for people to hate people who did the good things and others love them. the same things goes to Teiresias but he just accept the fate with his full heart.
