2.  Macbeth Skits

At this point we have finished reading the first two acts.
In small groups, you will work together to create a short skit that represents the major plot points and characterization of the play. 

First, as a group, create a STEAL chart for:

Then, using the characterizations from above, create a 3-5 minute skit of the first two acts.

You will need to decide which parts of the text are crucial to the story and which lines can be eliminated. 
You will also need to decide how you will make this your own unique adaptation.

With your group, create a new script and decide on your actors.
Make sure that you hold all of your group members accountable and practice before you present to the class.

Closure: 

Reflect on your presentation.
What are you proud of and what would you change?
What did you learn and what questions do you still have?
