As you should know by now, you need to include at least 2 quotes from the play in each of your genre pieces - that means you will have AT LEAST 10 QUOTES throughout your entire project. When taking a quote from the play, put it in quotation marks AND cite the act and scene the quote is from in parentheses. Here is an example using a quote at Romeo says about Rosaline during Act 1, scene 5:
Rosaline had "sworn off love, and that promise has left [Romeo] alive but dead" (Act 1, scene 5).
Go back into your genre pieces and make sure that you have 2 quotes in ALL 5 of your genre pieces. Remember, this is the order everything in your Word Document should be in:
- Cover Page
- Table of Contents
- Act I Symbol Page
- Genre Piece 1 - Newspaper
- Act II Symbol Page
- Genre Piece 2 - Journal/Diary Entry
- Act III Symbol Page
- Genre Piece 3 - Poem
- Act IV Symbol Page
- Genre Piece 4 - Choice Genre 1
- Act V Symbol Page
- Genre Piece 4 - Choice Genre 2
**Please note: I will not be doing progress checks everyday, but I have broken the project down into manageable pieces that you should be able to complete the day they are assigned. It is in your best interest to stay on top of the assigned work and not leave the entire project for last minute.**
Please let me know if you have any trouble accessing any links or submitting your assignments. Remember that I am available via email (amanda.egbert@cobbk12.org) and through Remind.
Today's Work:
- Continue working on your project.
- Look at the rubric linked above.
- Look at last week's blog posts for specific instructions for each genre piece.
- **Remember: Each genre piece must reference specific characters, events/scenes, and at least two quotes from Romeo and Juliet.**
- Make sure you have a Symbol Page for each act in Romeo and Juliet
- In front of each genre piece, you will have a page where you must include one symbol that relates to the acts in the play. The symbol should be creative, colorful, and relate to the act. The pace should be clearly labeled with the act number (Act I, Act II, Act III, etc.) and include a paragraph (4 - 5 complete sentences) that explains why the symbol was chosen to represent the act.
- Your Act I Symbol Page should be in front of your Genre Piece 1, your Act II Symbol Page should be in front of your Genre Piece 2, etc.
- Make sure your Cover Page has a creative and colorful image that relates to the play and the required information (see above).
- Make sure your Table of Contents is in order (follow the outline at the top of this blog post) and has the correct page numbers listed for each part of the project.
What's Due Today:
- Continue working on your Multi-Genre Project. It is due on turnitin.com on Wednesday, April 1.
