Other ideas for scene or act summaries include having students "Tweet" three comments about a scene, create an Instagram post of a key event in an act or scene or to send out a "Snap" via a "Snapchat" template. It's a fun visual reminder of our progress through the play as well.
I post these around the room and my students love to read what others have written. I made a header for each Act to post around the room with our sticky notes.Īct 4 - A tweet from Romeo and one from Juliet I make each act a different type of summary - here's what I did with this year's students. I ask my students to summarize or comment on each act on a large sticky note and we add it to a growing wall display. Using these organizers allows students to demonstrate their understanding multiple ways - by doodling, adding quotes, finding figurative language, looking at character traits and more! I don't use them for every scene but a few used for key scenes or moments in the play can be a helpful way to track student learning and student understanding. My Romeo & Juliet - Graphic Organizers for ANY Act / Scene allow students to work in pairs, small groups or individually to respond to the text. and it made me hate reading Shakespeare.Īs a teacher I am very away aware of this memory and needed to come up with a way for students to respond to the text, demonstrate their understanding and be able to provide some creativity. I remember pages of questions for each scene in each act. I hated doing endless analysis questions as a student reading the play in my grade 10 year. My students really got into it this year and started looking for them online too! Why not have students create their own? I introduce the memes as they relate to parts of the play as we are reading - we discuss their meaning, why the meme is effective and then I add it to my collection on my wall. A quick Google search will yield many results - I print them out and put them up around my classroom. I get a kick out of memes and there are some fantastic ones out there for Romeo & Juliet.
