9th Grade Rockwood and Romeo and Juliet

Ah, the romance, tragedy that has rocked the world for so long....Romeo and Juliet of course!  This ageless Shakespeare play has wrung many a heart and eye dry for the love and tragedy between "two star crossed lovers."  In our quest for art and the corollation between this play and the imaginations of the student body at Rockwood High School we certainly achieved a great deal in just a very few days.

On top of our finished works we also had time to do a bit of writng as well.  As always, our ultimate goal is to capture the attention and interest of the students.....even got Mr. Robison to write a bit too:  See below:

Tybalt
Hotheaded, boisterous
Hating, dueling, instigating
Tybalt hates, hell, peace, Montagues
Troublemaker

Tybalt
Hothead, mean
Fighting, hating, annoying
Never thinks with his head
Troublemaker

Mercutio
Loud, obnoxious
Irritating, caring, kidding
Always makig people laugh
best friend

Nurse
Rude, watchful
Boasting, spying, caring
Open minded at times
Caregiver

Chorus
Descriptive, hidden
Interuppting, talking, foreshadowing
The chorus tells all
Narrator

Romeo
Love, romantic
Loving, caring, exploring
Picks single person to love
Montague

Benolio
Kind, concerned
Caring, loving, observing
A really good friend
Peacemaker

Juliet
Young, Wishful
Adoring, thinking, feeling
An earthly love binds her
Maiden
