05.30 - Romeo and Juliet Act III scenes i and ii

Today in class we watched Act II scene vi and Act III scene i in the Zeffirelli film version of the play. These scenes show Romeo and Juliet being married and then the subsequent duels between Mercutio and Tybalt and then Tybalt and Romeo.

Together as a class we then read Act III scene ii where Juliet learns that Romeo killed Tybalt.

For homework, everyone got a reading log and is to look at Act III scene i (the duels) and evaluate Romeo's character and then look at Act III scene ii (where Juliet learns of Tybalt's death) and evaluate her character.

Handouts:
Reading logs (this time focusing on Juliet and Romeo individually) 

Romeo and Juliet reading log (G&L version)

Romeo and Juliet reading log (E&R version)

Romeo and Juliet reading log (C&A version)

Romeo and Juliet reading log (GWD version)

The reading logs were based on the Likert scales that people created in class on Tuesday, 04.29. People can use whichever version they want; the one they created is just most likely to reflect their perspective on the two scales.

Homework:

Reading log on Romeo (Act III scene i)
Reading log on Juliet (Act III scene ii)
