Romeo and Juliet Projects

We are finally wrapping up our school year with our Romeo and Juliet projects. Below are examples of the projects your classmates have created. I will post your student examples as you turn them in and only if you give me permission. Please enjoy and feel free to comment, but remember to keep it constructive and positive :)

To any families or friends visiting this page, students in Mrs. Cales' 9th grade English class read Romeo and Juliet and as a final project were allowed to choose one of four project choices. The choices included: Create 5 postsecret postcards to anonymously share one secret for five of the main characters; Create a comic book based on the play Romeo and Juliet; Create a Play (movie) Trailer to "sell" the play; and Re-Write a scene or script based on Romeo and Juliet and record a performance of your script. Below are several class examples. I will be updating them and trying to share as many as I can as they are turned in to me.
