On the road again...


I am headed to a debate tourney in T-town. I hope all of you have a great long weekend. Remember to have your project on Tuesday. Today you got your scene assignments. I hope you are not disappointed. Don't be intimidated. I am sure you are going to be great. Post comments here regarding your thoughts on your scene assignments. Elliot... be nice.

I look forward to all of these, but I really hate acting- that is, MY acting. So I guess I don't look forward to it as much as I dread it. A lot. Thanks, Mrs. Caldwell. Now my life sucks, and it's ALL YOUR FAULT!!! *cries*

Taking an entire clas devoted to acting, I really do not mind this project. But I will say that this just seems like another typical way of trying to make something that is pushing on lame, fun. Regardless, it is easy points and I think that anyone who complains about this needs to get over it and just try it at least. Come on, it could be interesting.

I am pretty exciting about the acting assignment. Although, I will say that I'm a bit intimidated by the number of lines, I, Prince Henry, has. I'm sure it will be fine though. I hope the debate tournament was fun!

Acting makes me nervous sometimes, but if I can get into it, it'll end up ok. I'm glad to be in a well-known play because if I get confused, I can always just copy the movie. Awesome.

I have 44 lines. I don't think that will be too bad...who knows, though. I'm excited to be with Ganderson and maggie and addie...someone else is in my group...shoot I cant remember, oh well. I think it will be a lot of fun. I'm very excited about doing it in front of an audience, too. I think it is also awesome that you are letting us pick the setting. It really let's us feel like we are adding something to it!

I don't mind my scene assignment as long as I don't have to bring props since I have the most lines. Im actually kind of excited about how the whole thing is going to go. However, how are we going to find costumes? I remember that was hard in ninth grade.

We are seniors and so we don't really need to do note cards.
We don't really need to do any outside work either.
Most people are already into college.

I am playing the role of Macbeth. I'm not sure how many lines I have to memorize, but it took me about five minutes to highlight all of them if that helps you realize how many I have. Hopefully Mrs. Caldwell's promise to cut some of my lines will come true. My memorizing skills aren't too sharp.

I am a terrible actor so I am very sorry if I dissapoint you. I am also really bad at memorizing lines (even more so when I dont understant what I'm saying) so, um sorry I guess. But all and all it will be nice to do something interactive and not have to sit at a desk all day. All and all it should be a nice break for all of us.

I think that this is going to be a lot of fun. I am glad that I get to act with Levin, and I think our scene will be a really good one. Thanks Mrs. Caldwell. :)

I dont really mind what we are doing with acting out scenes but i dont really understand the point of it. It doesn't help me learn about the play anymore than i would if we just read the play in class.

I am bad at memorizing. The 11 lines you gave me is too much. Don't expect much in the way of acting either.

I am looking forward to acting in front of the class. The only thing I do not want to do is memorize Prince Henry's lines. However, I believe that this will be more fun than the ninth grade edition of Shakespearean acting. Well I hope you had a good time in T-Town and will look forward to finishing Macbeth as soon as possible.
