Macbeth Classwork

Updated: May 3, 2019

For this activity, we got into a group of four and chose quotes from the play we liked. Once we got into our groups, we had to write out our quote on paper and cut each word out. After that we had to create new quotes using all of the words, making sure it still made sense.

I was in a group with Rainah, Paige,

and Cayden. These are the quotes we chose:

Paige - “Who should against his murderer shut the door, Not bear the knife myself” Act 1 Scene 7, Page 91

Rainah - “Shall blow the horrid deed in every eye, That tears shall drown the wind” Act 1 Scene 7, Page 91

Cayden - “What thou wouldst highly, That wouldst thou holily” Act 1 Scene 5, Page 79

Ruby - “Fair is foul and foul is fair”

For this activity, we createled an image of a scene from Macbeth. We had to act like each a character from the book. I was in a group with Rainah, Paige, and Cayden for this activity. We decided to do the scene where Macduff defeated Macbeth. Cayden's head was going to be on the top of a stick (Macbeth), Rainah was going to be holding the stick (Macduff), Paige was going to be laying down on the ground (Lady Macbeth), and i was going to be wearing a crown (Malcom). Here is the picture of our tableaux:


Text Theme Activity:

For this activity, we had to find quotes from Macbeth that represent four different themes: ambition, violence, guilt/remorse, and foreshadowing/dramatic irony. After we found quotes, we wrote them dmown on index card with a matching color. These are the theme cards from my group (Rainah, Paige, and Cayden). Green is for ambition, red is for violence because blood is red(the imaginary blood Lady Macbeth was seeing), blue is remorse also from Lady Macbeth sleepwalking, and black is for the foreshadowing because the witches prophesied that all these events would happen to Macbeth and it did happen.


Character Playlist:

For our character playlist we chose 3 songs that match Lady Macbeth. The songs were

- Murder on my mind

- sweet but psycho

- mixed personalities

We chose murder on my mind because that is what Lady mAcbeth was going through while thinking about how she and Macbeth was gonna be king. We chose sweet but Psycho because Lady Macbeth looks sweet on the outside but later goes insane for the guilt of killing people and manipulation. Last is Mix Personalities because Lady Macbeth was all sweet and welcoming in the beginning but later became really evil like and killed her self.
