Today we wrote a summary about Romeo and Juliet but we did it differently. We used only ten syllables because William Shakespeare (the author of Romeo and Juliet) always wrote his scripts in ten syllables. I had a lot of fun doing this activity. 

 

Visitors from the Pop Up Globe

Last week on Friday, Rubin and Rita came to LS2. 

They talked about the pop up globe and William Shakespeare.

They told us about how they rehearse and it takes,
It takes 6 weeks rehearsal and they use mixed genders.
They talked about the 4th wall which is a narrator.
The narrator includes audience in the play / act they do.
They also told us why the globe has no roof.
They have an open roof so the audience can see.
I had a lot of fun learning about William Shakespeare.
