· STAGE 1: Using Act 2.2 (pp. 845-853), choose the 3 most important lines from every 20 lines of the scene. In other words, from lines 1-20, choose the 3 most important. From lines 21-40, choose 3 more. Continue this all the way through the scene until p. 853. You should end up with 27 lines total.
· STAGE 2: Next, using the 27 lines you chose, reduce them to 27 key words. Circle 1 word from each of your previously chosen 27 lines. These words may repeat themselves and may not make perfect sense, but should include the 27 most important themes of each line.
· Stage 3: You are to rewrite your 27 lines from Stage 1
o Simplify the words of each line.
§ Dumb them down so that a young person could understand.
o Keep the same meaning of each line.
