"For never was there a story of more woe..."

We will conclude our reading of Romeo and Shakespeare with class performances. You have been divided into small groups and will perform selected scenes from Acts 2-4.  There is extra credit for those that memorize their lines and/or dress in costume for his or her character.  As a class, you will evaluate your peers performances and offer suggestions for future performances.  We will end our week with a discussion of whether or not Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet should be included in a 9th grade curriculum?
