Taming of the Shrew
Box Project/Performance
The last book we read in language arts was Taming of the Shrew, by William Shakespeare. At the end of the novel, we participated in a series of projects, two of which were performances or presentations. The first was a play based on one of the scenes from the novel, but it was adapted to a modern, gangster version. The second was a box project, where we chose a character and selected items that character would use, then presented it to the class. For both projects we did, we got full credit.
