Spring Term 1

This half-term, our topic is Older Literature.

We focus our learning on 'Romeo & Juliet'  by William Shakespeare.

We begin by reading and deciphering the prologue.

We then work on understanding the plot through reading a comic strip version and taking part in a Romeo and Juliet play in a day.

We use all of this as a stimulus for our writing.

We write and create:

• * A newspaper report about their tragic deaths.
• * A love letter from Romeo to Juliet.
• * An interview with Romeo.

Would you call Romeo a hero? Why?
