“Is this a dagger which I see before me . . .” As part of a study of Macbeth, class members engage in a series of activities that get them up and moving. Individuals practice, then deliver, a line from the Scottish play. The entire class takes turns reading parts of the dagger speech, (Act II, scene i), and groups perform scenes for their peers. Additional enrichment activities are included in the packet.
