Romeo And Juliet... Gameboard Help...?
598907
I give that assignment to my students. :-D\n\nOne of the best ones I saw had a gameboard with a path to follow. The tokens were cutouts with pictures of Romeo and Juliet (printed off the internet, I assume). They were pasted on cardboard and put in another piece of cardboard to stand. He also used dice and a set of cards with instructions. An example of one card he used: "'Good night, good night! Parting is such sweet sorrow!' (Act II, Scene 2) For parting with your love, go back 2 spaces." You'll need to come up with the rules of the game yourself, but you probably want a simple objective (i.e. make it around the board once, collect certain objects like poison and dagger, reunite Romeo and Juliet, etc.). It's all up to you and your creativity.

My boyfriend and I play board games like Scatergories, Uno, Dominoes, or Sorry.  (Stay away from Truth or Dare, it could get you into a lot of trouble.)  Its fun and adds a competitive edge to the relationship and also add some bets to spice it up.  Cooking together is always fun too.  Turn on some music and see what creations could be made in the kitchen.

Pick one knight anywhere.\nIf you pick either of the knights directly adjacent to him, you are done.  This happens 2/24 of the time.\n....OOXXOO...\n\nIf you pick a knight that is separated by exactly one seat (2/24 of the time), then there are 3 out of 23 seats that are adjacent.\n...OXOXO....\nIf you pick a knight that is more than one seat away (20/24), then there are 4 out of 23 seats that are adjacent.\n...OXO...OXO...\n\nSo the probability is:\n1/12 + 1/12 * 3/23 + 10/12 * 4/23\n\nAdding it up:\n23/276 + 3/276 + 40/276, or 66/276 = 33/138\n\nThis is approximately 23.91%

What really taught me was Chess. You can attack, show mercy, and getting kids into figuring out problems. Do I lose my Rook, knight, bishop, or queen? Pawns are a given to be taken. I would play this against my father, and loser did dishes. Two years of dishes and then my dad did dishes from then on.

I can only think of Juliet in Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet"!  Are you thinking fictional ones or real ones?  There are some in ancient myths...

Tybalt's death turns the play to a tragedy.\n\nThings are going great for Romeo. He's just married Juliet, the love of his life. Everything is perfect until about an hour or so after his wedding to Juliet, when he kills Tybalt.\n\nPer the Prince's decree in Act I, Scene i, anyone caught engaging in a civil brawl will be put to death. Romeo should be killed. Instead, Prince Escalus exiles him. Here's where everything starts going wrong.\n\nJuliet gets sad and wants to kill herself. Her daddy wants her to marry Count Paris. Everything sucks. So she goes to see Friar Lawrence, who gives her the potion which will make her appear dead.\n\nUnfortunately, Romeo does not receive the Friar's message that Juliet is just faking her death. He thinks she has really died. He goes to her tomb and quaffs the poison. When Juliet wakes up, she finds Romeo dead. Despite Friar Lawrence's protest, she refuses to leave and stabs herself with the dagger.\n\nThe play is a tragedy because it has an unhappy ending and because the heroes (Romeo and Juliet) are brought down by their fatal flaws (their immaturity and impatience).

OMG my class read this play recently... crap lol. i totally forgot, and my teacher took up everyones notes to grade. they would have really helped. This play was a real pain in the rear.  Although i do remember that Brutus was well respected in the Roman community, but he does wrong things, but for the right reason, of course (like the death of caesar). he thought that caesar was a threat to rome.

Go get one of those French for beginers books to have him practice. Or make a game out of it yourself. My teacher plays Hexagons with us. Cut a bunch of hexagons out and put French words on some sides and English words on the others. It's like a puzzle. The French words have to match up with the English words. \nOr play Attaque. Make a gameboard. Some squares say "Je" "Tu" "Il" "Elle" "Nous" "Vous" "Ils" et "Elles". He will have to then draw a card when he lands on one of those spots. The cards have verbs on them. He will have to write the correct form of the verb. For example, say he lands on "Tu" and picks up the card "Manger". He will then have to write down "Tu manges". If he gets it right, he gets 3 points. Then other squares say Attaque. Then he'll have to pick up a verb card and write all the forms of the verb. EX: "manger" Je mange, tu manges, il/elle/on mange, nous mangeons, vous mangez, et ils, elles mangent. He either gets 5 points or can steal someone else's points if he wins.The other squares say "Quel est ceci?" or "What is this?". If he lands on these squares, he picks up a card and says what the verb is in english. EX: "manger" = "to eat" He gets 1 point for this.

As a teacher myself, I know the importance of excellent resources and activities:\n\nI've found a book that will be an Excellent resource for teaching or directing Shakespeare. Great ideas for different teaching methodologies and plenty of across-the-curriculum activities. You, your colleagues, and your students will enjoy the clever means of incorporating math, science, art, journalism, music, social studies, physical education, and social issues into the study of Shakespeare. See the links: \nCLASSROOM ACTIVITIES, adaptable to grades 6-12\n\nDivide the class into 2-4 groups and have each group work up their own interpretation and performance of the same scene. All drama leaves room for interpretation, but Shakespeare leaves more than most, especially since the plays contain very little in the way of stage direction. Ask the students to add gestures or actions and make facial or physical responses to what the other characters say. A question that directors often ask is, "What inspires a character's first line?" For instance, consider the "Get thee to a nunnery" scene in Hamlet, Act III. Unbeknownst to Hamlet, his treacherous uncle and old Polonius are spying on him, and using his girlfriend Ophelia as bait. When Hamlet meets Ophelia (directly after his "To be or not to be" soliloquy), she is reading a book--presumably a devotional book, for his greeting to her is, "Nymph, in thy orisons (i.e., prayers) be all my sins remembered." At some point during the scene, Hamlet apparently realizes that he and Ophelia are not alone (his seemingly incongruous line, "Where is thy father?" indicates this). But when does he know this? In the Kenneth Branaugh movie, it's from the beginning; in the Ethan Hawke version, it's when he tries to kiss Ophelia and discovers that she's wired for sound. In the BBC version with Derek Jacobi (available on video, but very expensive to buy), Hamlet notices immediately that she in her distraction is carrying the book upside-down, and guesses that he's being set up. The "orizons" line is heavy irony, and their relationship goes downhill from there. Or, could it possible that Ophelia is giving him eye signals to indicate, "Dad's listening"? If so, what explains his apparent anger at her? A single gesture or facial expression, missing in the text, can point the scene in an entirely different direction. \nDivide the class in groups of 5 or 6 and ask each group to determine the time setting, overall design, costumes and music for the play they're studying. (Of course, this works best if you have artistic or musical students to contribute their ideas.) Comparing key scenes from Ethan Hawke's Hamlet with Kenneth Branaugh's or Mel Gibson's should give them an idea of the range of artistic interpretation. \nAs a class, determine movie or TV actors (or musicians--why not?) to fill the cast roster of a new production of the play you're studying. \nMake a list of contemporary movies that are based on Shakespeare plays, such as O and 10 Things I Hate About You. (Shakespeare-related websites might help in doing the research.) In small groups, students might compare the contemporary movie with the play, draw a contrasting characters chart, and make an oral presentation showing how the plots diverge. \nScript readings. This activity involves some prep time for the teacher, but I've found it to be worthwhile. Choose a Shakespeare scene that includes several characters, plus room for crowd reaction. Prepare a script for each character that consists only of his or her lines, plus cues (5-12 words from the previous speaker). Good scene choices include a. The assassination of Julius Caesar (III, 1, up to the entrance of Trebonius). Eleven speakers--be sure to provide each conspirator with a cardboard or plastic dagger! b. The "Pyramus and Thisbe" play from A Midsummer Night's Dream (V, 1, begi

You really should have read the play, man. It's actually really good, but then again I'm a writer--I love this kind of stuff.\n\nHere's a simple, easy solution. It won't help you on a test, because test questions are too detailed, but it should be fine for your project:\nhttp://www.sparknotes.com/lit/raisin/\n\nIn the meantime, GET THAT BOOK!!!

I'd say let the original plan that Juliet and the Priest had in the first place follow through,without Juliet actually dying. When she wakes up they kiss,and the the two families come looking for Romeo and realize Juliet is alive and it makes them appreciate the gifts they already had and they realize that theuir quarrleling was'nt right,and learned their lesson and have resolved their issues...then they all live happily ever after...perhaps a lesson to show love. I hope I made sense here!
