Lesson details

Lesson outcome

I can explore a wide range of rich vocabulary that can be used to add descriptive detail to a retelling of the duel scene from Act III Scene 1 in ‘Romeo and Juliet’.

Show transcript
The duel scene in Act III Scene 1 has a tense, pacy atmosphere. When we write, we can choose vocabulary that will build this specific atmosphere. We will need to know vocabulary specific to duelling in order to describe it in a tense, pacy manner. We can also select specific vocabulary to show the characters' emotions during the duel. Using drama to explore vocabulary can help pupils to understand it more deeply.
