  1. Preparing for Romeo and Juliet Coursework

  2. Explore means HOW…you have analyse evidence Ways means methods in structure and language and prosodic features Explore the ways Romeo and Juliet are presented in Act, Scene 2 and elsewhere in Shakespeare’s play and one of the performed versions. At least one other areas must be analysed for Romeo and one other area for Juliet. Have at least two other areas. Select areas where the characters have evolved This act is the focus of your essay and should be analysed in the most detail…about 40% of your essay The play and audio version must be discussed. 60/40 or 70/30. But mostly language and structure.

  3. What you have to do • Write a sustained, personal and analytical response to the question • Max 1200 words • Do what the question asks

  4. Introductions • Should provide some context to the play (plot, character, setting, themes) • Provide insight into what areas of the play will be discussed • Should rephrase the question • Must explicitly outline what was studied—Shakespeare’s play and the Arkangel audio version of the play, 2003

  5. Steps • One—read over material (notes, text, paragraphs done in class and/or for homework) • One—identify what areas of the play you want to analyse (go through your notes and work) • Three—Listen to the audio and make note pages; Read the text and make note pages on language/structure techniques • Four—Read over your targets and your notes…make sure your notes reflect that you are meeting your targets. • Five—You could write an essay and get some peer feedback.

  6. Note Pages—A body paragraph • Focal point and who it relates to (Romeo or Juliet) • Language/Structure • Evidence • Identification of language and structure techniques • Some key ideas you have regarding analysis (effect ton audience, plot, theme, etc., evaluation) • Prosodic Features • Evidence • Tone, stress, pitch, etc. • Some ideas regarding analysis

  7. Tips • Use the work you have done to develop your note pages • Add to the work you have done by making it better

  8. Homework and Controlled Assessment Start Date • Homework is to make note pages • Controlled Assessment will begin on Monday…you can only use your note pages (no written paragraphs or class handouts) and a clean copy of the text • Up to four hours to write the piece.
