Objective: By the end of class, students will read and analyze Romeo and Juliet, make real life connections, review plot structure, and continue writing in their character journals.
DO NOW: Read the following quote from Romeo and Juliet. Who said it? Who did they say it to? What does it mean? What is the significance?
Page 160:
"There's no trust,
No faith, no honesty in men. All perjured,
All forsworn, all naught, all dissemblers."
Direct Instruction:
Using graphic organizers, together, we will review plot structure and summarize the play up to where we are now.
Guided Practice:
Read and Perform Romeo and Juliet Act 3, Scene 5. Discuss and summarize events of Act 3. Review main events of Act 3 and predict events of Act 4.
Independent Practice:
Using NEOs, continue writing your character journals. Pick up from where you last left off. By the end of class, you should have entries for Acts 1, 2, and 3. If you do not finish in class today, type them on a computer and home and e-mail them to Ms. Reina so they can be printed.
If you finish your journals, begin working on the cover for your journals, using paper and crayons.
Closure:
Print journal entries and put Neos back on rack.
EXIT PASS:
According to Shakespearean plot structure, Act 3 is the climax. What event from Act 3 do you feel is the most important? Mercutio's death? Tybalt's death? Romeo's banishment? Why? Were there any big surprises?
