  1. Lesson 22Act IV, Scenes II & III Goals --analyze a character’s voice --break down language --identify imagery examples in a soliloquy

  2. Read Scenes II and III • We first need to read and understand what Juliet is experiencing in these scenes before breaking down her character motives

  3. Page 299 in SB • Juliet must conceal her emotions once again. Work with a partner to create a graphic organizer that shows all the characters with whom Juliet has interacted. • Show on your organizer with whom she speaks in her true voice, and those with whom she “wears a mask.” For each, write a brief explanation of why she acts this way. • One way to do this could be to draw pictures of Juliet interacting with different people, or use a bubble map.

  4. Individually • Quickwrite at bottom of 299 – 3-5 sentences • Do you think Juliet made a good decision in drinking the potion? Why or why not? • Share out two or three reasons!

  5. A close reading • Page 299 Instructions • Read carefully Juliet’s soliloquy from Act IV, Scene III. (page 300-301) • Underline all of the potential outcomes that frighten Juliet. • In the margins, summarize these fears. • Highlight words and phrases associated with death. • In the margin, write which sense each of these words appeals to, and explain the effect of the death imagery.

  6. Page 302 • Choose one part of the soliloquy that you feel is most important. Imagine you are the director telling your actress how to perform these lines. • To create an effective performance, what will you tell your Juliet to do? Write out some of these instructions in the first space provided. • In the second space, write how the actress should perform visually and vocally—how does she say these lines, and what is she doing?

  7. Homework • Work on EA1 visual and vocal delivery notes on your scene/speech • Focus on the meaning behind the language of your characters, and what they should be doing and what they should be saying.
