This week we will continue to work on Macbeth. We will work on stage combat in the death of Banquo. Next we will create a original scene based on the Banquet scene where the students will hypothesize what might have happened to some of the characters who attended this event. At the end of the week we will begin to learn about Physical Theatre and choreograph the 2nd witch's scene.

This week in 8th grade drama we will work on the first scene of Macbeth. We will read the first Witch's scene and look at the quality of the dialogue and the information it conveys. We will compare and contrast some different versions of the scene looking at the director and design choices. We will look at Lady Macbeth and Lord Macbeth's first conversation in the play and explore their alter egos (inner thoughts) . We will create an inquiry into the death of Duncan and work on stage combat for Banquo's death.
This week in 8th grade drama we will be finishing our assessment for the famous people process drama. We will start to learn about Shakespeare playing some games: "Who said it Beiber or Shakespeare?" and "Shakespeare Expert".
