Spring Break Reading:

Act 2 and 3 of Romeo and Juliet


Over spring break, you are responsible for reading an annotating the rest of act 2 scenes 3-6 and act 3 scene 1 of
Romeo and Juliet. There will be a quiz and I will be collecting your annotations when you come back, so read
carefully.
You will be find the script of the play on schoology. You will need to print Acts 2 and 3 or find a way to
annotate digitally that you can hand in. (I suggest a hard copy). There will also be an audiobook version of the
play posted on schoology, which you a welcome to use.
What you should be reading for:
- Plot: What moments are important for driving the plot forward? Are these moments created though
actions or words?
- Characterization: Friar Laurences motivation for allowing Romeo and Juliet to get married. How and
why do Tybalt and Mercutio die?
- Unknown Words: If you dont know a word, look it up!! I will be pulling vocabulary from the play for
your quiz.
- Other: What do you find interesting about the play? Mark passages you wonder about, passages you
think may be important later, or passage you like. (Just make sure and note why you marked the text).
