Act 2 fill-in-blank (Friar’s speech) – review answers on

Asked to write out the meaning of this speech in one sentence.

Next, with a partner or alone, scripted Act 2 scenes 3 and 5 (skipping 4) – for each character, write out a Modern English simple sentence for each of their responses – please note that each scene has 19 exchanges. Each of your 2 scripts should have 19 exchanges too.

Last, for each of the 4 characters, on your newly written scripts, find 3 places for each character to DO SOMETHING and write out what that “something” is. For example, Romeo enters and waves to the Friar…or Juliet falls to her knees and begs the Nurse.
