Macbeth: Makin' it Modern

Part I: Makin’ it Modern

• No technology!  None!

• Handwrite. Set up in play format (Macbeth: I want to be king!)
• Reword into your own language; general understanding = ok (not word for word)
• Break up the lines evenly between your groups.
• Example: Mya & Kym take pages 1-2, Rachel & Austin take pages 3-4, Chandler 1 & Matt & Reid take pages 5-6.
