Project #13 Project Based Learning Plan #1

Romeo and Juliet: A Modern Twist

By: Team Grammar

Students will read the play Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare. In order to check their understanding of the plot and main themes of the play, they will act out a scene from the play. However, they must put their own modern twist on the scene and try to interpret it in a way that people could understand today. They will be separated into groups and video themselves acting out the scenes using IMovie. On an individual basis, each student will create a script for their group which they will be graded on. Each group will then pick the script they think is best to use. This project is meant to engage students and get them to collaborate, communicate, and think critically. Below you can find links to the project planner, individual and group rubrics, and project calendar.
