1. Warm-Up (Act 3 Activator)
Brainstorm a list of “good manners” vs. “bad manners.” Think about the manners your parents taught you when you were a child, what you have learned as a teenager in school, and manners you might need in the future to get a job, keep a job, meet people, and be a successful adult.

2. Pygmalion Notes
You are responsible for creating your own notes for each act. You will be able to use them on your assessment, so it will work in your favor to create yourself some awesome notes for each act!
For each act, I will give you vocabulary you need to know as well as any background information.
I would recommend that you make notes as we read – anything we talk about, quotes we discuss in depth, etc… write it down if you think it’s important.
You will answer questions for each act on these pages as well.
Basically, these pages you create in your notebook are your record of the work and thought you put in during this unit, and they will be graded.

4. Act 3
“At-Home Day”: A social custom in Victorian England, where women of status would receive visitors on a specific day of the week. The woman would print calling cards indicating she would be "At Home" e.g. on "Fridays in April". Those of her acquaintances who had received the card could then call on her that day. It was considered impolite to visit unannounced on any other day, or to visit without having received a card. Guests should visit between three or four and six in the afternoon, and stay for a period from a quarter of an hour to an hour, depending on how well they know the hostess.

6. Act 3 Discussion Questions:
1) When Liza is presented at Mrs. Higgins’ at-home day, how is she more like a doll or a statue than a human being? Higgins says that she is limited to talking only about health and weather. Does she follow the limitations? What aspects of her speech reveal that she is not yet a lady?
2) How does Clara take Eliza's incredible attempt to "talk proper" during an accidental meeting with the Hills at Mrs. Higgins' "at home" social occasion? Support your answer with at least two pieces of evidence from the text. How does Mrs. Eynsford Hill interpret Eliza's performance? How do you know how she feels about Eliza’s behavior?
3) Mrs. Higgins, like Mrs. Pearce in Act II, sees a problem about the arrangement her son has made with Liza. Mrs. Pearce was more concerned with appearances: Liza living with Higgins could be misconstrued. What does Mrs. Higgins understand that the men don’t see? Support your answer by providing at least one example or quote from the last scene (p ) in Act 3.
