This week I want to talk about a play that we have been reading in English called Romeo and Juliet. Yes everyone has heard it and most have probably read it, but for me its kin of new. not saying i've never heard of the play or that I don't know what it's about, but I have never read it or seen it in the theater.
as of now we are still in the first act before Romeo meets Juliet, and the big fight between the Montigues and the Capulets has just happened. the prince came in and ended the fight by telling the two families that they would die if it happened again. This really startled me , considering that the prince wants to kill them over a little fight. I'm still kind of confused but I think i'm starting to understand what is going on.
I hope that this is a meaningful unit in our study and I think it will. Learning the different techniques of Shakespeare has become very interesting to me because of the way that he speaks. I'm looking forward to learning more and digging deeper into the play and it's true meaning.
Thanks for reading.

I like how you gave a background to what was going on in the play, and how you connected with the readers on the difficulty of understanding Shakespeare. Nice Blog!
