Third Grade continues its Shakespeare workshop this week by exploring Act 1 of Macbeth. Together the students read through scenes 1-3 and 5 of Act 1 (slightly edited by me!), and discussed how Shakespeare’s choice of words affect the tone and meaning of the play. In some cases, students offered translations of the text into Modern English. Next, we assigned parts and donned our costumes to give the text a dramatic reading. I’m sure you can imagine the library filled with creative energy of this group. Shakespeare workshop will continue likely through next week! Happy Reading!
