Slide 1

ROMEO AND JULIET
Extended Instructions

The ONLY part of the project meant
to be done with other people is the
scenes. Everything else is done
INDEPENDENTLY!

EVERYTHING must be TYPED!

This is a major grade and you have weeks

to do it; your BEST work should be
reflected! Everything should be neat and
organized.

COSTUME
When wearing a costume for a scene, it must fit
the character. Do not wear something flashy for the
Nurse or the Friar, for example. Take into
consideration social class and what you have seen in
the movie.

COSTUME DESIGN
Romeo, Lord Montague, Lady Montague,

Benvolio, Mercutio, Friar Laurence, Juliet,
Lord Capulet, Lady Capulet, Nurse, Tybalt,
Paris

SOLILOQUY OR
MONOLOGUE
 Check it with me to make sure you have chosen something
long enough.

 Decide whether or not you are performing for me or the
class.
 Make an appointment.

 PRACTICE!

REWRITING
 Keep the context. The only scene you can change the plot
in is if you rewrite Act 5 Scene 3 to have a happy ending.

Otherwise, the purpose of rewriting is to use modern language
to replace the Shakespearean language. This must be YOUR
WRITING. Do not cheat and use No Fear Shakespeare, Spark
Notes, etc. Plagiarism results in a ZERO for the ENTIRE
PROJECT!

GLOBE THEATRE
 I’ve had these made from Legos, cake, wood, Styrofoam,
cardboard, etc. DO NOT BUY A KIT FROM THE

INTERNET or PRINT A FOLDABLE FROM THE
INTERNET!!! This is your creation from scratch! A one page
typed report on the parts of and history of The Globe should
be included.

SONNET
Must be ORGINAL and follow a sonnet rhyme
scheme. Must fit the definition of a sonnet and be
about the play. Must be typed. Do not plagiarize
any part of it.

LETTER TO LORD
MONTAGUE
 This needs to be in letter format. (Dear Father, Sincerely, Romeo)
 It must be typed.

 It must be full of all of the things Romeo would have had to say to
his father by that point in the play.
 Use Romeo’s “voice.” It does not have to be Shakespearean
dialect, but I also do not want 2014 teenager. Formal writing.

SOUNDTRACK
 Here is a sample entry:
 “I Will Wait” – Mumford & Sons: This would play as Romeo is
leaving Juliet’s room in Act 3 Scene 5. The lyrics are about waiting
forever for the one the singer loves. Juliet and Romeo are promising

each other to wait for the time they can be together.
 Title: Artist: Where in the play it fits: Why it fits: Typed
 DO NOT SKIMP ON THIS! It’s easy and you need to earn all of
the points!

NEWSPAPER
 Look at the samples I have in the classroom.
 Must be typed. Must look like a newspaper.
 Variety of articles, pictures, etc.
 This is for 100 points, so it requires a tremendous amount
of effort. I can look at a rough draft to tell you if there is
enough. Do not under-do this one!

ORIGINAL SONG
 Verses and a chorus
 Type up the lyrics

 Do NOT under-do
 It must be about the play

CHILDREN’S BOOK
 Illustrated
 Typed
 Make it look like a book
 Simplify the story
 Can give it a happy ending

3-D MODEL
 I’ve had these made of clay, Play-doh, etc.
 Box turned sideways
 Must do TWO scenes
 A typed explanation of what is in the scene and why you
did the things you did.

FOOD DISH
Research it – include a typed recipe and a
paragraph of what you learned about the dish
during your research.
Bring with proper utensils to share.

TIMELINE
 Typed
 Follow examples – look at what I have in the classroom
 Neatly done

MURAL OR COLLAGE
 Artistic and creative
 DO NOT PRINT PICS FROM VARIOUS VERSIONS OF THE

MOVIE!
 Other than that, you have creative freedom – but it all should
relate to the play.

LETTER TO SHAKESPEARE
 Typed
 Specific

 One full page
 What did you like and not like about the play

BOOK COVER
 Like the Anthem project
 Front has picture, inside flap brief synopsis of play, inside

back flap has author info, and the back cover has quotes from
people who have read the book - use your friends or make
them up.

leaving Juliet’s room in Act 3 Scene 5. The lyrics are about waiting
forever for the one the singer loves. Juliet and Romeo are promising

each other to wait for the time they can be together.

of effort. I can look at a rough draft to tell you if there is
enough. Do not under-do this one!

The ONLY part of the project meant
to be done with other people is the
scenes. Everything else is done
INDEPENDENTLY!

EVERYTHING must be TYPED!

This is a major grade and you have weeks

to do it; your BEST work should be
reflected! Everything should be neat and
organized.

COSTUME
When wearing a costume for a scene, it must fit
the character. Do not wear something flashy for the
Nurse or the Friar, for example. Take into
consideration social class and what you have seen in
the movie.

COSTUME DESIGN
Romeo, Lord Montague, Lady Montague,

Benvolio, Mercutio, Friar Laurence, Juliet,
Lord Capulet, Lady Capulet, Nurse, Tybalt,
Paris

SOLILOQUY OR
MONOLOGUE
 Check it with me to make sure you have chosen something
long enough.

 Decide whether or not you are performing for me or the

REWRITING
 Keep the context. The only scene you can change the plot
in is if you rewrite Act 5 Scene 3 to have a happy ending.

Otherwise, the purpose of rewriting is to use modern language
to replace the Shakespearean language. This must be YOUR
WRITING. Do not cheat and use No Fear Shakespeare, Spark
Notes, etc. Plagiarism results in a ZERO for the ENTIRE
PROJECT!

GLOBE THEATRE
 I’ve had these made from Legos, cake, wood, Styrofoam,

about the play. Must be typed. Do not plagiarize
any part of it.

LETTER TO LORD
MONTAGUE
 This needs to be in letter format. (Dear Father, Sincerely, Romeo)
 It must be typed.

 It must be full of all of the things Romeo would have had to say to
his father by that point in the play.
 Use Romeo’s “voice.” It does not have to be Shakespearean
dialect, but I also do not want 2014 teenager. Formal writing.

The ONLY part of the project meant
to be done with other people is the
scenes. Everything else is done
INDEPENDENTLY!

EVERYTHING must be TYPED!

This is a major grade and you have weeks

to do it; your BEST work should be
reflected! Everything should be neat and
organized.

COSTUME
When wearing a costume for a scene, it must fit
the character. Do not wear something flashy for the
Nurse or the Friar, for example. Take into
consideration social class and what you have seen in
the movie.

COSTUME DESIGN
Romeo, Lord Montague, Lady Montague,

Benvolio, Mercutio, Friar Laurence, Juliet,
Lord Capulet, Lady Capulet, Nurse, Tybalt,
Paris

SOLILOQUY OR
MONOLOGUE
 Check it with me to make sure you have chosen something
long enough.

 Decide whether or not you are performing for me or the
class.
 Make an appointment.

 PRACTICE!

REWRITING
 Keep the context. The only scene you can change the plot
in is if you rewrite Act 5 Scene 3 to have a happy ending.

Otherwise, the purpose of rewriting is to use modern language
to replace the Shakespearean language. This must be YOUR
WRITING. Do not cheat and use No Fear Shakespeare, Spark
Notes, etc. Plagiarism results in a ZERO for the ENTIRE
PROJECT!

GLOBE THEATRE
 I’ve had these made from Legos, cake, wood, Styrofoam,
cardboard, etc. DO NOT BUY A KIT FROM THE

INTERNET or PRINT A FOLDABLE FROM THE
INTERNET!!! This is your creation from scratch! A one page
typed report on the parts of and history of The Globe should
be included.

SONNET
Must be ORGINAL and follow a sonnet rhyme
scheme. Must fit the definition of a sonnet and be
about the play. Must be typed. Do not plagiarize
any part of it.

LETTER TO LORD
MONTAGUE
 This needs to be in letter format. (Dear Father, Sincerely, Romeo)
 It must be typed.

 It must be full of all of the things Romeo would have had to say to
his father by that point in the play.
 Use Romeo’s “voice.” It does not have to be Shakespearean
dialect, but I also do not want 2014 teenager. Formal writing.

SOUNDTRACK
 Here is a sample entry:
 “I Will Wait” – Mumford & Sons: This would play as Romeo is
leaving Juliet’s room in Act 3 Scene 5. The lyrics are about waiting
forever for the one the singer loves. Juliet and Romeo are promising

each other to wait for the time they can be together.
 Title: Artist: Where in the play it fits: Why it fits: Typed
 DO NOT SKIMP ON THIS! It’s easy and you need to earn all of
the points!

NEWSPAPER
 Look at the samples I have in the classroom.
 Must be typed. Must look like a newspaper.
 Variety of articles, pictures, etc.
 This is for 100 points, so it requires a tremendous amount
of effort. I can look at a rough draft to tell you if there is
enough. Do not under-do this one!

ORIGINAL SONG
 Verses and a chorus
 Type up the lyrics

 Do NOT under-do
 It must be about the play

CHILDREN’S BOOK
 Illustrated
 Typed
 Make it look like a book

TIMELINE
 Typed
 Follow examples – look at what I have in the classroom
 Neatly done

MURAL OR COLLAGE
 Artistic and creative
 DO NOT PRINT PICS FROM VARIOUS VERSIONS OF THE

MOVIE!
 Other than that, you have creative freedom – but it all should
relate to the play.

LETTER TO SHAKESPEARE
 Typed
 Specific

 One full page
 What did you like and not like about the play

BOOK COVER
 Like the Anthem project

people who have read the book - use your friends or make
them up.

leaving Juliet’s room in Act 3 Scene 5. The lyrics are about waiting
forever for the one the singer loves. Juliet and Romeo are promising

each other to wait for the time they can be together.
 Title: Artist: Where in the play it fits: Why it fits: Typed
 DO NOT SKIMP ON THIS! It’s easy and you need to earn all of
the points!

NEWSPAPER
 Look at the samples I have in the classroom.
 Must be typed. Must look like a newspaper.
 Variety of articles, pictures, etc.
 This is for 100 points, so it requires a tremendous amount
of effort. I can look at a rough draft to tell you if there is
enough. Do not under-do this one!

ORIGINAL SONG
 Verses and a chorus
 Type up the lyrics

 Do NOT under-do
 It must be about the play

CHILDREN’S BOOK
 Illustrated
 Typed
 Make it look like a book
 Simplify the story
 Can give it a happy ending

3-D MODEL

 Box turned sideways
 Must do TWO scenes
 A typed explanation of what is in the scene and why you
did the things you did.

TIMELINE

MURAL OR COLLAGE

relate to the play.

ROMEO AND JULIET
Extended Instructions

The ONLY part of the project meant
to be done with other people is the
scenes. Everything else is done
INDEPENDENTLY!

EVERYTHING must be TYPED!

This is a major grade and you have weeks

to do it; your BEST work should be
reflected! Everything should be neat and
organized.

COSTUME
When wearing a costume for a scene, it must fit
the character. Do not wear something flashy for the
Nurse or the Friar, for example. Take into
consideration social class and what you have seen in
the movie.

COSTUME DESIGN
Romeo, Lord Montague, Lady Montague,

Benvolio, Mercutio, Friar Laurence, Juliet,
Lord Capulet, Lady Capulet, Nurse, Tybalt,
Paris

SOLILOQUY OR
MONOLOGUE
 Check it with me to make sure you have chosen something
long enough.

 Decide whether or not you are performing for me or the
class.
 Make an appointment.

 PRACTICE!

REWRITING
 Keep the context. The only scene you can change the plot
in is if you rewrite Act 5 Scene 3 to have a happy ending.

Otherwise, the purpose of rewriting is to use modern language
to replace the Shakespearean language. This must be YOUR
WRITING. Do not cheat and use No Fear Shakespeare, Spark
Notes, etc. Plagiarism results in a ZERO for the ENTIRE
PROJECT!

GLOBE THEATRE
 I’ve had these made from Legos, cake, wood, Styrofoam,
cardboard, etc. DO NOT BUY A KIT FROM THE

INTERNET or PRINT A FOLDABLE FROM THE
INTERNET!!! This is your creation from scratch! A one page
typed report on the parts of and history of The Globe should
be included.

SONNET
Must be ORGINAL and follow a sonnet rhyme
scheme. Must fit the definition of a sonnet and be
about the play. Must be typed. Do not plagiarize
any part of it.

LETTER TO LORD
MONTAGUE
 This needs to be in letter format. (Dear Father, Sincerely, Romeo)
 It must be typed.

 It must be full of all of the things Romeo would have had to say to
his father by that point in the play.
 Use Romeo’s “voice.” It does not have to be Shakespearean
dialect, but I also do not want 2014 teenager. Formal writing.

SOUNDTRACK
