One of the final assignments for our Romeo & Juliet unit, before March Break, was to choose a drama or art project from the list. This included such things as drama interpretation of the play, or a scene or scenes (in 5 minutes!), fashion design (designing clothes or a charm bracelet for a character or characters), creating a rap or song about the play, or drawing a picture book or comic (among other choices). Students could also come up with their own option...as a pair of students did, making an animation of the Tybalt/Romeo fight (see below)
I know we were a bit pressed for time, but most students were able to come up with very interesting material and thus demonstrate knowledge of the play.
I also quite enjoyed the interpretative drama performance that put the story of R&J in Gingerbread land with unicorns, or the imaginative 'Juliet & Romeo' version, where everything was opposite...
Here are some photos of other R&J themed pieces: Facebook entries, costume design, and charm bracelets...
