Students in groups develop a character from Romeo and Juliet. They determine the most pivotal part of the play where their character is involved. They decide on a song that thematically represents their characters lines in that scene. Each group presents their scenes with the lyrics from the song rather than the lines from the play.
Entire class breaks down themes after seeing and hearing the scene studies for each character.
The students then re-write the play using lyrics, music and modern language to communicate their parallel theme. Net Web Services sm , a division of Teachers Web sm . All Rights Reserved.
