R + J Video Summary and Questions
Today we are going to watch a video that summarizes the play Romeo and Juliet in only 9 mins! While we are watching the video, keep these points in mind, we will have a discussion after the video focused around them:
- Keep in mind how the illustrations are used to aid in the story telling, because when we actually start reading the play we won’t have them to aid us
- What else could be used beside illustrations when telling this story?
- Does this kind of video help you out, to give you a better feel for the plot? Or did you feel it went by too quickly for you to comprehend everything?
- What things did you pick up on from the summary?
- What are some potential pro's and con's to watching this kind of summary video before actually reading the play? Is it worthwhile to do it?
