Task 3: Copy Cat Game! Your task is to read the lines from an act in Romeo and Juliet and
make a recording from any available gadget.
SAY THIS!
“Romeo:
If I profane with my unworthiest hand
This holy shrine, the gentle fine is this:
My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand
To smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss.
Juliet:
Good pilgrim, you do wrong your hand too much,
Which mannerly devotion shows in this;
For saints have hands that pilgrims' hands do touch,
And palm to palm is holy palmers' kiss.
Romeo:
Have not saints lips, and holy palmers too?
Juliet:
Ay, pilgrim, lips that they must use in prayer.
Romeo:
O, then, dear saint, let lips do what hands do;
They pray, grant thou, lest faith turn to despair.
Juliet:
Saints do not move, though grant for prayers' sake.
2
Romeo:
Then move not, while my prayer's effect I take.
Thus from my lipsy yours, my sin is purged.
Juliet:
Then have my lips the sin that they have took.
Romeo:
Sin from thy lips? O trespass sweetly urged!
Give me my sin again.
Juliet:
You kiss by thy, be book.”
Task 4: Who said it!: Your task is to identify who said the the lines stated below.
a. “Is she a Capulet? O, dear, account, my lie is a foe of debt!” Romeo says this when he
learns that Juliet is a member or the Capulet family. “O, I am fortune’s fool!” illustrates the
fact that Romeo sees himself as subject to the whims of fate.
b.“My only love sprung from my only hate. Too early seen unknown and known too late.”
Juliet says this when she learns that Romeo is a Montague, an enemy of her family.
Your Final Task: Skits!This is the part where you showcase your skills in creating a one act
play.
I want you to think of a conversation you make daily with someone ( like mother,
father, siblings, store owner, drivers, etc. ) Write a script of the daily conversation among
them. Make sure to use the different prosodic features of speech in your one act play.
What I Can Do
SYNTHESIS
For this activity, you are going to make a flip book to see if you understand the
lesson. You need to create a comic book for the balcony scene in the modern times. Your
comic book should have pictures and captions for each scene from the play. Just choose
important moments from each scene, and write a dialogue that might be spoken in that
scene. The comic books should be creatively done and in color.
