Our literacy and drama learning journey is all about Romeo and Juliet. We have learnt how forbidden love means that two people are not allowed to be together because their family’s are rivals. This morning and afternoon we have been using drama to explore older language and what it means. To get to understand what it was like to be in the story, we dressed up and got into role of one of the characters in Romeo and Juliet. Our focused freeze frame inspiration was from the prologue (a small section of the story to get you hooked in) of the story Romeo and Juliet. Our morning and afternoon was extremely fun and it required alot of concentration through the heat!

The ‘older language’ sounds interesting-what kind of words are used?
Words like:
Thee-you
Wilt-will
