We enjoyed another mild day yesterday. The temperature rose probably into the 60’s, and pleasant sunshine was with us all day. I took one of my classes outside for a brief respite from the stuffy classroom, and we all took pleasure in the fresh, brisk air. We read a short passage from “Macbeth”, in which the “heaven’s breath” is described as smelling “wooingly”. I think the students benefited from hearing that passage read aloud in the outdoors on a “wooingly” spring-like day.
