Macbeth: Act III

For Macbeth Act III we will be working in groups and reading assigned sections of the text. While in your groups you are expected to complete the following:

1. Translate your scene into "modern" English.
2. Mark at least 2 literary devices per page. (This can include evidence of specific themes and motifs found throughout the play).
3. Create a detailed summary of the events that transpired in your assigned section.
4. Answer any Study Guide questions that may be contained in your scene.

In order to get full credit for this assignment, you must participate.
As a group, you will turn in your detailed summary and translation. You will present everything to the class, including your markings for each page and the answers to any study guide questions.

As you listen to other groups, it is your responsibility to make sure that you know and understand what is taking place in the other scenes. You are still required to know what happens in the complete Act. In addition, it behooves you to write down the markings that they other groups marked in their sections, as well as the answers to any study guide questions.

Lastly, please remember to participate. We are watching and we know who is working hard, and who is hardly working...please come see us if you have ANY questions.
