Before we begin our reading of Shakespeare’s Macbeth, let’s reflect upon our prior impressions and knowledge. What do you already know (or think you know) about William Shakespeare? What are your expectations for the Macbeth play?
I already have learned a lot about Shakespeare. I know that he made many famous plays. He died on his birthday at the age of 52. People came from all around to see his plays. The kind also liked his plays. This is lust some of what I know, but I think theses are all very important.
PS~This is Jake Cianci, I am Using my mom's account
I already knew that Shakespeare wrote plays and lived in England. He lived near the THAMES river, which was smelly and polluted, but he wasn't born in London, he was born in Stratford. I think that Macbeth might hard to understand because Shakespeare wrote in the way they used to talk.
I know a few things about William Shakespeare. Obviously, I know that he wrote many famous plays. He was born in Stratford, England. Also, his first years in London were named "the lost years" because no one knew when William's interest in theater began. Shakespeare had only one son named Hamnet which died at the age 11. Sadly, William Shakespeare died at the age of 52 on his 52nd birthday. Those are a few things that I know about William Shakespeare, but I still hope to learn much more! Also, I think that Shakespear's Macbeth play will be interesting but hard to comprehend in some ways.
I know that Shakespeare died on his birthday at the age of 52, he had one son and wrote many famous plays that were saved in a book. Without this book we would have no record of Shakespeare or his plays. I also know that he wrote many famous plays that the queen came to see. I believe that this story will be hard to understand because of the language that they used during that time.
I don't really know much about that Shakespeare guy at all accept that he wrote poetry and died at 52 because I wasn't listening that much in class. So, that's really all I know.
BEN 7th period P.S. He freakin wears skirts what kind of guy SKIRTS!
I have learned many things about Shakespeare in the past. I know that he wrote many famous plays in the past, and one of his most famous is Romeo and Juliet. Also, I know that he had 3 children, but he lost his only son which is whyy some of his plays during that time were sad. Personaly, I have not heard of The Macbeth Play, so I am excited to read it in class.
I know that Shakespeare wrote many famous plays such as Romeo&Juliet and A Mid Summer's Nights Dream. I also know that his one and only son, Hamnet, died at the age of 11. He also died at the age of 52 on his birthday.
I know that Shakespeare wrote lots of famous plays. I also knew that the stages were very old. I expect the play Macbeth to be very good and confusing.
I know that Shakespear was the most famous playwriter of all time. I know that he was not born in England, but moved there eventually. I also know that he wrote over 50 plays and 2 men of his troupe gethered and compiled them in a book. I think the Macbeth play was be very difficult to understand because they were designed to be preformed, not read, but it will be a masterpiece, like all of his other works.
I know that Shakespeare is one of the most famous play writers in history. He was born in Stratford-upon-Avon. He only had one son who tragically died at the age of 11. Shakespeare was a play writer at a difficult time in history for play writers and actors. He was loved by the Queen and then the King because of his wonderful acts. I do not know much about the book Macbeth, but I have heard it is a wonderful book. Some of Shakespeare's other famous books include Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet, and Othello.
To begin, i know that Shakespeare wrote many plays in his lifetime, and that he was very mysterious. It is believed that no one knew when his exact date of birth or what he really looked like! All they know for certain is that he was born in England and had a boy named Hamnet who, sadly, died at age 11. Also, the King and Queen cherished him and his plays that he wrote! Finally, he died at age 52 on his "birthday". I haven't heard anything about Macbeth, but i expect it to be extraordinary, intriguing, and surprising so I stay interested! I hope to enjoy this unit!
I know that Shakespeare was one of the most famous play writers of all time. The Queen and King of England both liked him because of his talent in the arts. One of his famous plays was Romeo and Juliet. I have never heard of the Macbeth. I think it will be hard to understand its language, but will still be very good.
I only know a very little about William Spakespeare. Of the things i do know i know that he was born in England. When he was alive Elizabeth I was queen. Later on in his life, Shakespeare joined an acting group called Lord Chamberlain's Men. Shakespeare also had one son, Hamnette, that died at the age of eleven. Shakespeare then died at the age of 52 supposedly on his birthday. In what i know about Shakespeare i am suspecting that the Macbeth play will be very good. -Andrea S.
Things I know about Shakespeare-He's amazingly talented and like all other famous people, he wasn't approved by society at first. Some of his best works are:A Midsummer's Nights Dream and Romeo and Juliet. What I'm expecting about Macbeth: To be tragic, entrtaining and good. ~Nikita R.
I know that William Shakespeare was born in Stratford, England and wrote many plays. I also know that he died on his 52nd birthday. I expect Macbeth to be a dramatic play about Macbeth and his battles, and it might be hard to read because of the time period that it was written in. -Ashley Keiger PS: I dont know why it says Andrea...???
In FOCUS in 5th grade we did a unit on Shakespeare and read A Midsummer Night's Dream (I think I was a fairy or the donkey guy), so I know a few things about him. I know he wrote Romeo and Juliet and Hamlet. He performed in the Globe Theater until a spark from a cannon set the Globe in fire. Queen Elizabeth (I think the II) liked his plays a lot. All of the actors were men, even the girl characters. Shakespeare lived in London a long time ago. He wrote everything in Old English. I tried to read one of his plays and I was way too confused to get past the first page (like when I tried to read Lord of the Rings in 3rd grade). I haven't heard much about Macbeth, but I know it is a tragedy. Macbeth might be confusing if it's in Old English, but tragedies are supposed to be really good, like Romeo and Juliet. That is all I can remember right now. --Monica Stephenson 4 period
I know or that I think that I know is that Shakespeare lived in the 1600's. He loves drama and poetry. I hope that Macbeth will be a suspenseful play. Very dramatic and tragic. It will probably be a confusing play. --Paul Choo
I know that William Shakespeare was born in England and he died at the age of 52. Since we have already started reading the play, I think it is kind of confusing so far. I think the rest of the play will become more suspenseful and exciting
All I really knew about Shakespeare before we read that book in class was: "Oh, Romeo!" "But soft, what light through yonder window breaks..." and "to be or not to be..." I always knew he wrote plays a long time ago, but I didn't know his real story. Now that we read the William Shakespeare and the Globe book, I know that he lived in England, where everyone hung out around the bridge over a river that was very unsanitary, and watched street plays. Soon Will began writing stories and plays too, and was excellent at it. So excellent that we still perform his plays today!
Before I only knew a little about Shakespeare, but now I know that nobody knew what he looked like or when he was actually born. I think that Macbeth play will turn out that Macbeth will confess to killing Malcome and Macbeth will be beheaded.
I don't know that much about this Shakespeare guy because I didn't get that much out of the book about the Globe thing accept that he was a famous poet and died at 52.
William Shakespeare was an awsome playright who lived in England. he wrote many plays including Hamlet and Romeo and Juliet. He died on his 52nd birthday, whcih could have been a number of days.
I know so many things about William Shakespeare now after taking some notes. One of the things I can recall is that because Queen Elizabeth loved the arts she very much enjoyed his plays. He was first born in Stratford, England. Then once he started writing excellant plays, these plays were sent off to the Globe Theatre to be performed. Sadly a cannon in the audience caused the theatre to catch on fire until there was nothing left of the Globe theatre. In Shakespeare's early lifetime, he had an eleven year old son. He died at the age if 52. So far I think that the book is a little bit confusing at some parts, but I do look forward to reading further in the book. I also like how everyone gets there own part to read.
I know that shakespeare was a great actor and playwrite. I also know that his early years were unknown to many people. I think that its sad that he died on his birthday :(
Shakespeare was a great man and writer. He wrote many plays, but was most famous for his tragedies, such as Romeo & Juliet. No one really knows anything about his life, but we do know that he lived in london, he died at the age of fifty two, and that he became the greatest writer of his time period.
I already knew that Shakespear is on the most known playwrites and wrote many famous plays. I knew that he lived in England but was born in Straford, but died on his 52 birthday. I think that Shakespears Macbeth will be interesting but very distant as it was written in a different time.
Hurr, hurr, I finally figured how to do this...T-T
So Shakespeare's this guy that wrote, like, alot of plays. ;D Macbeth, A Midsummer Night's Dream, Hamlet, Romeo & Juliet... The usual. :D I remember watching the nanny when Maxwell and Fran had be in Romeo and Juliet, since Maxwell's a broadway guy. At the end, when Fran had to kill herself, she was being a spaz and was pulled up by a rope-thingie.:D And then this other time, I was watching a show about a kid who was CEO/Earl of a famous toy company. He hired a buch of actors to act for a bunch of orphaned children, but they all died. D: So the CEO kid and his friends had to perform it themselves. Everyone kept on scaring the kids because there was this one guy in a dress. But it ended up being a hit because someone was seaweed and was sinnging the seaweed song.:D
But back to the real facts, Shakespeare wrote alot of plays and tragedies. I saw a Shakespeare comedy and it wasn't funny. I guess British people have no sense of humor back then. They couldn't be immature people like us. :D (But I'm getting off task again.) Shakespeare died on his birthday and lived in London. I guess dying at 52 is good back then. At least you won't die in your thirties, like in third world countries. :D
I have allot of prior knowledge of William Shakspeare. In the 4th grade we had learned about William, his family, surroundings, several of his plays, slang created by him used in his plays, styles and fashions of his era, archetchture, and all about the decades he lived through.
Willianm shakespeare was born april 23 in Stratford-upon-Avon. He attended several schools and got an impressing education. He got married to a woman named Anne Hatheway ay the age of 18. They soon had thier first baby girl. Later, he and Anne had twins ( a boy and a girl), but unfortunately, His only son Hamnet died at the age off 11.
Later in his life, William got involded with a acting company known as 'Lord Chamberlains Men', wich soon became the best company in England! He and the men in his group then created a playhouse called The Globe theater. Many of his most famous plays were preformed here. (some Shakespears most remembered plays were: A Midsummer Nights Dream, Romeo & Juilet, Macbeth,and Hamlet) Shakespear used mad several hundreds of new words and slang in writting the scripts of his plays , some of which we still use today. He is the most recognizable play writter in the world and many still even qoute metaphors of his plays.
With my experience with Shakespears attitude and writting techniques, there is a guarentee that the play Macbeth will be suspenseful, bloody, dramatic, but with the smallest ounce of dark hidden humor.
He died in 1616 and died wealthy, forever embedded in severals thoughts, and has been missed.
I LOVVVE WILLIAM SHAKESPEAR <3 :), ~~~Zahri Munroe
I already knew that Shakespeare was a famous play writer and used interesting language. I expect Macbeth to be really good and use interesting language. -Mitchell Gladstein
I completely agree with Mitchell. All i really know about William Shakespeare was that nobody knew alot about him and he was a famous play writer. And I knew that he dressed funny. this is a little note for Ms. Smith, may I have another part in the book for reading please? I think Macbeth will be a really good but comfusing book and will have plenty of drama if not too much. -Harrison Olvey
Before beginning our unit on Shakespeare I already knew a few things. One thing for sure is that William Shakespeare wrote plays. His only son died at the age of 11. Shakespeare died in 1616 at the age of 52.
I expect Macbeth to be interesting but confusing. I think I am going to really need to pay attention in order to understand it.
I knew that Shakespeare wrote plays and became famous for writing them. He wrote dramas, comedies, etc. I knew that he died at the age of 52 years old and that he was not a poor man! He wrote in the old English which is the base of our English today.
Shakesphere wrote plays and i also think he wrote poems. He had one son who died when he was 11. he also was interested in sophisticated language. I expect the Macbeth play to be fun and interesting.
I didn't know much about William Shakespeare until we started talking about it in class. The things i knew about William Shakespeare is that he was a famous play writer that wrote the famous play, "Romeo & Juliet". I also knew that he was born in England and he died at the age of 52.
I think that the Macbeth play is going to be a little confusing yet it will be very good overall.
I know a few things about William Shakespeare. For example, I know many of his plays like "Romeo and Juliet", "Macbeth", and "A Midsummer Night's Dream." I also know that Shakespeare was born in Stratford Upon Avon in England and died when he was only 52. I think that Macbeth will be kind of a sad story just for the fact that the play is called the tragedy of Macbeth. I think it will also be good just because it was written by the great William Shakespeare himself. It may be a little hard to understand because it is in old English, but it will still be a good story to read.
I know that Shakespeare is a very important play and story writer. He is an idol to many writers. I think "Macbeth" will be a great book to read. The name is mysterious and it makes me want to know what the book is about. Being an old book it has very good grammer and style.
Not many people knew about shakespear. But everyone knew him when he started writing his famous play. Everyone loved his plays, even the king of England. His son, Hamnet, died when he was , and Shakespear died when he was 52. I do not know what to expect for the Macbeth play. It will be interesting. This is Elliot Brim aka Cookie (Monster)
I think shakespeare was one of the most famous writers of all time. I mean, he started writing really young & everyone loved his plays so i have high expectations for Macbeth. Which, is said to be one of the tragic stories he ever wrote after Romeo and Juliet. i also dont know what to expect except maybe sad parts and lots of drama. - Ashley Birdsall
i know that Shakespeare is a very famous play writer. and he has written some of the most famous plays. for example romeo and Juliet is one that i think everyone knows. i also think that there might be lots of drama and intense scenes.
I already knew Shakespeare was a very famous play writer and that he wrote very famous plays throughout the world.I think the book Macbeth will use old english literature and it will involve some very dramatic scenes!
Now that you are mid-way through the Macbeth play, you should have a sense of character traits, perhaps character flaws, that affect main characters in the play. What words would you use to characterize Macbeth? Lady Macbeth? Explain your choices.
I would characterize Macbeth as a weak,but powerful tyrant. I say this because a agree with Lady Macbeth on that. But I characterize her as a cruel, spiteful, controlling manipulator. I say this because she is pushing Macbeth to do more and more bad things.
I think that Macbeth is a paranoid, violent, motionally disturbed, ambitious, egotistical, obsessive, and slightly insane character. I think that Lady Macbeth is a obsessive, ambitious, violent, risk taking, diabolical, decieving, and agressive character.
Until next time, Mitchell D. Gladstein signing off. Stay wonderful America!
Macbeth: Weak, Easily manipulated, thoughtful Explaination: Macbeth was easily manipulated by Lady Macbeth to kill the king, i think that Macbeth is also thoughtfull becasue he relized what he did was the wrong the to do. He even wanted to say a prayer after he commited the murder
Lady Macbeth: Strong, Over powered, Self Minded. Explaination: Lady Macbeth manipulated Macbeth to kill the king. She wanted to have power and fame and wealth. She was not thinking about how Macbeth was going to feel.
The words that i use to characterise lady Macbeth are: controlling, mischeivous, determined, manipulated,and selfish. The words I use to describe macbeth are: fearful, weak, guilty, corrupted, friendly,and noble.
Macbeth: halucinating, weak, mad, confused, crazy, thoughtful Explaination: Lady Macbeth convinces Macbeth to murder Duncan, Banquo, and his son to become king.
Lady Macbeth: convincing, mad, crazed with power, horrible, Explaination: She is very mad because she is a convincer who convinces to kill.
Lady Macbeth- Cruel, ruthless, controlling She is a woman who will do anything to become th queen, and controlls her husband to kill the king. She is not afraid of anything. She even compares herself to the devil. Macbeth-Crazy, Scared, Dilagant Why? Well once he kills the king he cannot bring himself to finish the prayer, and does not thik himself worthy. He also becomes crazy after Banquo's death seeing ghosts and things like thst, not knowing it to be reality or a dream. -Ashley Birdsall
I would characterize Macbeth as weak and a little crazy. He is a person who kills to get what he wants. Lady Macbeth is a powerhungey crazy woman who only cares about being above everybody else. She only cares about herself and manipulates Macbeth into doing what she wants. I this because it is true about both of them.
I think Macbeth is someone who gets scared easily and has hallucinations at times. He is very guilty of the murders and fears many things. Lady Macbeth is fearless because she was not scared to kill King Duncan and she said that she would kill her own child if she had too.
In the play Macbeth, Macbeth craves power because three whiches told him his prophecy. They said that he would become the Thane of Glamis and then the King. Macbeth gets overtaken by what the whiches said and plans to kill the current King. This makes Macbeth weak, guilty, and afraid. Lady Macbeth pushed Macbeth to kill the king and it seemed that she wanted the King to be killed more than Macbeth. Lady Macbeth would be considered mean, determined, strong, fearless, and controlling.
Lady Macbeth: I think Lady Macbeth is strong and wanting power. She is also selfish, and pushy. I don't like that about her..... But she has a soft spot when it comes to family because she even said that she would of killed Duncan if he didn't remind her of her father.
Macbeth is someone who does bad but feels guilty for the problems he has created. He is a scared man who often agrees with what ever Lady Macbeth says. Lady Macbeth is the bold one of the two. She is the leader of her husband and convinces him to do what she wants for her.
If i could describe Macbeth in a few words i wold say he is weak, scared, paranoid, and is freaking out. Lady Macbeth is strong, powerful, driven, and hungary for power.The reason i think Macbeth is all of my descriptive words is because he was scared to murder the king and he murders Banquo and is very scared of it and is hallucinating with Banquo's ghost. Lady Macbeth is every word that i used to describe her beacuse she urged Macbeth to kill the king so he will become king and she will be the queen with more power than Macbeth. Farewell- Harrison Olvey
Macbeth has many flaws. He's careless and full of himself. He also is vary nervice about geting cought for killing the king and now banquo.Lady Micbeth is careless and damanding of her husband.
Macbeth started off as a fearless soldier, but then was driven insane by wanting to be King so bad that he murdered Duncan. Lady Macbeth is controling, evil, and very driven to get what she wants. She will do anything to make sure that Macbeth stays King.
Macbeth started out as a brave soldier. Right before he went to kill Duncan, he imagined a bloody dagger. After he sent 3 murderers after Banquuo (who I thought would survive), he sees Banqou's ghost, but nobody else does. He is going crazy and paranoid. Lady Macbeth is still ruthless and determined to keep her position of power. She fears Macbeth will give them away and end their reign of power. -Monica
Some words that I would use to characterize Macbeth as are coward, craven, traitor, tyrant, criminal, murderer, paranoid, insane, demented, deranged, and rabid.
I chose these words for Macbeth because he is too much of a coward to finish his murder and he has become insane and deranged after the murder.
The words that I would use to characterize Lady Macbeth are lunatic, tyrannical, power-hungry, control freak, bossy, and pushy.
I chose those words for Lady Macbeth because she wants to have more power now that she knows that her husband, Macbeth, is going to be king.
I am looking forward to what happens next in Macbeth.
Lady Macbeth is the dominant female, like Rochelle form Everybody Hates Chris. :D She's mean, tough, and scary when she needs tyo, but Rochelle is ACTUALLY nice to her kids especially Drew, but not Chris, because eveyone hates him. She kinda reminds me of my mom, because she's scary when she needs to, too. Lady Macbeth sounds like a nutjob sometimes and scares the kids~ :D Macbeth reminds me of Killmoose(Kilmoo, Killmoose? IDK. XD) from Everybody Loves Chris because he's a crazy guy who is really, reall, REALLY random. :D He has guilt problems like this guy from this show on Adult Swim. He had alot of greif when he killed Greed, but he sucked it up like big midget he is! ;D Lady Macbeth is very independent and Macbeth depnds on her like in that song when they say, "She gives me money, when I'm in need~" They remind me of my mom and dad, because my dad's afraid of my mom. :D (She's really scaryyyy... D:) So yeah...
(\_/) (^.^) FEAR TEH BUNNEH! SHE WILL TAKE OVER THE WORLD!!!
I think Macbeth is a very cruel but guilty person. He is a crazy, hallucinating, violent murderer. He is like a puppet being controlled by Lady Macbeth, yet he is some what afraid. He is being manipulated to kill and do bad deeds just to get his spot as king.
On the other hand, Lady Macbeth is a cruel, manipulating, fearless, selfish, inconsiderate lady. She only cares about herself and she puts other people in pain. She wants to be in control and have power. There is no fear in Lady Macbeth. She is very confident but cruel.
I think Macbeth is violent for killing Duncan, but once he starts having hallucinations it makes him seem like he cannot handle himself. I think it makes him seem weak, especially when he has others kill Banquo for him. I think Lady Macbeth is very bossy and doesn't have a problem putting Macbeth in his place. She always tells him that he needs to act like a man which I think makes her seem rude. I agree with Ashley on this one, she is very confident.
Macbeth is a dude Lady Macbeth is a dudet if this isnt good enough then im going to write a little more...
Macbeth: He started as a valiant hero, but as more and more people added to his ego he became a murderous villian. He started to change his state-of-mind when he was told by the three witches told him that he would become thane of Caudor then king. Then he starts to go "crazy in the head" ,if you know what I mean, when he sees the floating dagger in the air. then later he gets people to murder banquo and then hes sees his ghost sitting in a chair at a dinner party and you know hes crazy then.
Lady Macbeth: This girl is very queer and demented. She starts in the book when she comes into the scene after Macbeth tells her about what the witches said. she later says that she wishes that she was a man which is reaaaally freaky and i dont think that is very normal... in any case... ya so thats it
People keep saying MacBeth was evil, but thats not really true. MacBeth only did what anyone else would have. That's just what it was like back then. Kill or be killed. If he hadnt killed Duncan, Someone would have killed him first. He's not weak, the guy is just confused.
As for lady Macbeth, she's just crazy. She is a power hungry maniac. She is the real evil one. She is just using MacBeth is a way to gain power. She is totally nuts.
I think that William Shakespeare is a very boring but a very artistic play maker. His plays are almost like artwork they speak to you in a very quiet voice. All I know is that there is not much known information about him.I expect that the Macbeth play will be very boring but it will teach me a very valuable and important lesson.
I know that William Shakespeare is one of the most famous play writes in history. Although little is known about him, his work is well known around the world. He is best known for his plays Hamlet, Macbeth, and Romeo & Juliet
Lindsay Vining I read a lot of Shakespere in FOCUS in 5th grade. My favorite was either Romeo and Juilet or Hamlet. Although he is very famous in the reading and writing world, there is very little known about him. I think Macbeth will be good and intense, like most of Shakespere's writings are. I think it will have a fighting twist to it. I know what it is about because i read a shorter version in 5th grade. I think it will be intertaining.
I think shakesspeare is a very cool writer!! he has written very cool plays that are well known globally. I find his way of writing very interesting <3 go romeo and juliet i also love macbeth Cna35880
While learning about shakespeare, I learned that there is a mystery if Shakespeare was really the writer or if he was only a fraud. Also i learned that shakespeare liked to write about tragic events, but also about commedy. Posted by Sabrina
I don`t know a lot about Shakepear. I do know he wroke many famus plays. some of them were preformed in the Globe theator. The theator was also a good way for people to enjoy them selves.Shakespear was also a big question. Anna T.
Shakespear was born and died on the same day, April 23, only differnt years. He wrote famous plays that have lived on hundreds of years because of their "forever" design/layout. Macbeth, I suppose is about the murder, that led to many more, for revenge. I don't know though, but I'll find out soon enough!
I really enjoyed the shakespear playshop. I learned alot of new things about him, and his plays! The part I enjoyed the most was acting out the plays. I also liked how all the plays we acted ou fit togther. Something new I learned about shakespear was that the more money you payed, the better seats you gotfor the show. I really liked the playshop!
I already have learned a lot about Shakespeare. I know that he made many famous plays. He died on his birthday at the age of 52. People came from all around to see his plays. The kind also liked his plays. This is lust some of what I know, but I think theses are all very important.

I know that Shakespeare died on his birthday at the age of 52, he had one son and wrote many famous plays that were saved in a book. Without this book we would have no record of Shakespeare or his plays. I also know that he wrote many famous plays that the queen came to see. I believe that this story will be hard to understand because of the language that they used during that time.

In FOCUS in 5th grade we did a unit on Shakespeare and read A Midsummer Night's Dream (I think I was a fairy or the donkey guy), so I know a few things about him. I know he wrote Romeo and Juliet and Hamlet. He performed in the Globe Theater until a spark from a cannon set the Globe in fire. Queen Elizabeth (I think the II) liked his plays a lot. All of the actors were men, even the girl characters. Shakespeare lived in London a long time ago. He wrote everything in Old English. I tried to read one of his plays and I was way too confused to get past the first page (like when I tried to read Lord of the Rings in 3rd grade).
ReplyDeleteI haven't heard much about Macbeth, but I know it is a tragedy. Macbeth might be confusing if it's in Old English, but tragedies are supposed to be really good, like Romeo and Juliet.
That is all I can remember right now.

I know or that I think that I know is that Shakespeare lived in the 1600's. He loves drama and poetry.
ReplyDeleteI hope that Macbeth will be a suspenseful play. Very dramatic and tragic. It will probably be a confusing play.
--Paul Choo
I know that William Shakespeare was born in England and he died at the age of 52. Since we have already started reading the play, I think it is kind of confusing so far. I think the rest of the play will become more suspenseful and exciting

All I really knew about Shakespeare before we read that book in class was: "Oh, Romeo!" "But soft, what light through yonder window breaks..." and "to be or not to be..." I always knew he wrote plays a long time ago, but I didn't know his real story. Now that we read the William Shakespeare and the Globe book, I know that he lived in England, where everyone hung out around the bridge over a river that was very unsanitary, and watched street plays. Soon Will began writing stories and plays too, and was excellent at it. So excellent that we still perform his plays today!

Before I only knew a little about Shakespeare, but now I know that nobody knew what he looked like or when he was actually born. I think that Macbeth play will turn out that Macbeth will confess to killing Malcome and Macbeth will be beheaded.

William Shakespeare was an awsome playright who lived in England. he wrote many plays including Hamlet and Romeo and Juliet. He died on his 52nd birthday, whcih could have been a number of days.

P.S. Emma needs to get a muzzle!
I know so many things about William Shakespeare now after taking some notes. One of the things I can recall is that because Queen Elizabeth loved the arts she very much enjoyed his plays. He was first born in Stratford, England. Then once he started writing excellant plays, these plays were sent off to the Globe Theatre to be performed. Sadly a cannon in the audience caused the theatre to catch on fire until there was nothing left of the Globe theatre. In Shakespeare's early lifetime, he had an eleven year old son. He died at the age if 52. So far I think that the book is a little bit confusing at some parts, but I do look forward to reading further in the book. I also like how everyone gets there own part to read.

I know that shakespeare was a great actor and playwrite. I also know that his early years were unknown to many people. I think that its sad that he died on his birthday :(
ReplyDelete-maggie dunn 7th period
Shakespeare was a great man and writer. He wrote many plays, but was most famous for his tragedies, such as Romeo & Juliet. No one really knows anything about his life, but we do know that he lived in london, he died at the age of fifty two, and that he became the greatest writer of his time period.
ReplyDeleteI already knew that Shakespear is on the most known playwrites and wrote many famous plays. I knew that he lived in England but was born in Straford, but died on his 52 birthday. I think that Shakespears Macbeth will be interesting but very distant as it was written in a different time.
ReplyDeleteKayla Rowland
Hurr, hurr, I finally figured how to do this...T-T
ReplyDeleteSo Shakespeare's this guy that wrote, like, alot of plays. ;D Macbeth, A Midsummer Night's Dream, Hamlet, Romeo & Juliet... The usual. :D I remember watching the nanny when Maxwell and Fran had be in Romeo and Juliet, since Maxwell's a broadway guy. At the end, when Fran had to kill herself, she was being a spaz and was pulled up by a rope-thingie.:D And then this other time, I was watching a show about a kid who was CEO/Earl of a famous toy company. He hired a buch of actors to act for a bunch of orphaned children, but they all died. D: So the CEO kid and his friends had to perform it themselves. Everyone kept on scaring the kids because there was this one guy in a dress. But it ended up being a hit because someone was seaweed and was sinnging the seaweed song.:D
But back to the real facts, Shakespeare wrote alot of plays and tragedies. I saw a Shakespeare comedy and it wasn't funny. I guess British people have no sense of humor back then. They couldn't be immature people like us. :D (But I'm getting off task again.) Shakespeare died on his birthday and lived in London. I guess dying at 52 is good back then. At least you won't die in your thirties, like in third world countries. :D
Peace out yo,

I have allot of prior knowledge of William Shakspeare. In the 4th grade we had learned about William, his family, surroundings, several of his plays, slang created by him used in his plays, styles and fashions of his era, archetchture, and all about the decades he lived through.
ReplyDeleteWillianm shakespeare was born april 23 in Stratford-upon-Avon. He attended several schools and got an impressing education. He got married to a woman named Anne Hatheway ay the age of 18. They soon had thier first baby girl. Later, he and Anne had twins ( a boy and a girl), but unfortunately, His only son Hamnet died at the age off 11.
Later in his life, William got involded with a acting company known as 'Lord Chamberlains Men', wich soon became the best company in England! He and the men in his group then created a playhouse called The Globe theater. Many of his most famous plays were preformed here. (some Shakespears most remembered plays were: A Midsummer Nights Dream, Romeo & Juilet, Macbeth,and Hamlet) Shakespear used mad several hundreds of new words and slang in writting the scripts of his plays , some of which we still use today. He is the most recognizable play writter in the world and many still even qoute metaphors of his plays.
With my experience with Shakespears attitude and writting techniques, there is a guarentee that the play Macbeth will be suspenseful, bloody, dramatic, but with the smallest ounce of dark hidden humor.
He died in 1616 and died wealthy, forever embedded in severals thoughts, and has been missed.
I LOVVVE WILLIAM SHAKESPEAR <3 :),

I already knew that Shakespeare was a famous play writer and used interesting language.
ReplyDeleteI expect Macbeth to be really good and use interesting language.
-Mitchell Gladstein
I completely agree with Mitchell. All i really know about William Shakespeare was that nobody knew alot about him and he was a famous play writer. And I knew that he dressed funny. this is a little note for Ms. Smith, may I have another part in the book for reading please? I think Macbeth will be a really good but comfusing book and will have plenty of drama if not too much.
ReplyDelete-Harrison Olvey
Before beginning our unit on Shakespeare I already knew a few things. One thing for sure is that William Shakespeare wrote plays. His only son died at the age of 11. Shakespeare died in 1616 at the age of 52.
ReplyDeleteI expect Macbeth to be interesting but confusing. I think I am going to really need to pay attention in order to understand it.
I knew that Shakespeare wrote plays and became famous for writing them. He wrote dramas, comedies, etc. I knew that he died at the age of 52 years old and that he was not a poor man! He wrote in the old English which is the base of our English today.
ReplyDelete-Ry Wessels 4th
Shakesphere wrote plays and i also think he wrote poems. He had one son who died when he was 11. he also was interested in sophisticated language. I expect the Macbeth play to be fun and interesting.

I know a few things about William Shakespeare. For example, I know many of his plays like "Romeo and Juliet", "Macbeth", and "A Midsummer Night's Dream." I also know that Shakespeare was born in Stratford Upon Avon in England and died when he was only 52. I think that Macbeth will be kind of a sad story just for the fact that the play is called the tragedy of Macbeth. I think it will also be good just because it was written by the great William Shakespeare himself. It may be a little hard to understand because it is in old English, but it will still be a good story to read.
ReplyDeleteJada Tijani 4th period
I know that Shakespeare is a very important play and story writer. He is an idol to many writers. I think "Macbeth" will be a great book to read. The name is mysterious and it makes me want to know what the book is about. Being an old book it has very good grammer and style.
ReplyDeleteDavid Pipes
Not many people knew about shakespear. But everyone knew him when he started writing his famous play. Everyone loved his plays, even the king of England. His son, Hamnet, died when he was , and Shakespear died when he was 52. I do not know what to expect for the Macbeth play. It will be interesting.

I think shakespeare was one of the most famous writers of all time. I mean, he started writing really young & everyone loved his plays so i have high expectations for Macbeth. Which, is said to be one of the tragic stories he ever wrote after Romeo and Juliet. i also dont know what to expect except maybe sad parts and lots of drama.

Blog Topic: Characterization in Macbeth
ReplyDeleteNow that you are mid-way through the Macbeth play, you should have a sense of character traits, perhaps character flaws, that affect main characters in the play. What words would you use to characterize Macbeth? Lady Macbeth? Explain your choices.
I think that Macbeth is Going to die because he does not have enough mental stength.
ReplyDeleteI would characterize Macbeth as a weak,but powerful tyrant. I say this because a agree with Lady Macbeth on that. But I characterize her as a cruel, spiteful, controlling manipulator. I say this because she is pushing Macbeth to do more and more bad things.
ReplyDeleteI think that Macbeth is a paranoid, violent, motionally disturbed, ambitious, egotistical, obsessive, and slightly insane character.
ReplyDeleteI think that Lady Macbeth is a obsessive, ambitious, violent, risk taking, diabolical, decieving, and agressive character.
Until next time, Mitchell D. Gladstein signing off. Stay wonderful America!
Macbeth- nervous, powerful, greedy, sneaky, sly, fearless, betrays friends
ReplyDeleteLady macbeth- mean, impatient, scary, rude, greedy, bad, crazy
Macbeth is not as bad as lady macbeth but lady macbeth forces macbeth to do evil.
RICHIE ADAMS
Macbeth: Weak, Easily manipulated, thoughtful
ReplyDeleteExplaination: Macbeth was easily manipulated by Lady Macbeth to kill the king, i think that Macbeth is also thoughtfull becasue he relized what he did was the wrong the to do. He even wanted to say a prayer after he commited the murder
Lady Macbeth: Strong, Over powered, Self Minded.
Explaination: Lady Macbeth manipulated Macbeth to kill the king. She wanted to have power and fame and wealth. She was not thinking about how Macbeth was going to feel.

Lady Macbeth: convincing, mad, crazed with power, horrible,
Explaination: She is very mad because she is a convincer who convinces to kill.

Lady Macbeth- Cruel, ruthless, controlling
ReplyDeleteShe is a woman who will do anything to become th queen, and controlls her husband to kill the king. She is not afraid of anything. She even compares herself to the devil.
Macbeth-Crazy, Scared, Dilagant
Why? Well once he kills the king he cannot bring himself to finish the prayer, and does not thik himself worthy. He also becomes crazy after Banquo's death seeing ghosts and things like thst, not knowing it to be reality or a dream.
-Ashley Birdsall
I would characterize Macbeth as weak and a little crazy. He is a person who kills to get what he wants. Lady Macbeth is a powerhungey crazy woman who only cares about being above everybody else. She only cares about herself and manipulates Macbeth into doing what she wants. I this because it is true about both of them.
ReplyDelete-Jada Tijani
I think Macbeth is someone who gets scared easily and has hallucinations at times. He is very guilty of the murders and fears many things. Lady Macbeth is fearless because she was not scared to kill King Duncan and she said that she would kill her own child if she had too.
ReplyDelete-Jennifer Um
-_________-
In the play Macbeth, Macbeth craves power because three whiches told him his prophecy. They said that he would become the Thane of Glamis and then the King. Macbeth gets overtaken by what the whiches said and plans to kill the current King. This makes Macbeth weak, guilty, and afraid. Lady Macbeth pushed Macbeth to kill the king and it seemed that she wanted the King to be killed more than Macbeth. Lady Macbeth would be considered mean, determined, strong, fearless, and controlling.
ReplyDelete--Madison Watts
Lady Macbeth: I think Lady Macbeth is strong and wanting power. She is also selfish, and pushy. I don't like that about her..... But she has a soft spot when it comes to family because she even said that she would of killed Duncan if he didn't remind her of her father.

If i could describe Macbeth in a few words i wold say he is weak, scared, paranoid, and is freaking out. Lady Macbeth is strong, powerful, driven, and hungary for power.The reason i think Macbeth is all of my descriptive words is because he was scared to murder the king and he murders Banquo and is very scared of it and is hallucinating with Banquo's ghost. Lady Macbeth is every word that i used to describe her beacuse she urged Macbeth to kill the king so he will become king and she will be the queen with more power than Macbeth.
ReplyDeleteFarewell- Harrison Olvey
Macbeth has many flaws. He's careless and full of himself. He also is vary nervice about geting cought for killing the king and now banquo.Lady Micbeth is careless and damanding of her husband.
ReplyDeleteJared Rosenberg
Macbeth started off as a fearless soldier, but then was driven insane by wanting to be King so bad that he murdered Duncan. Lady Macbeth is controling, evil, and very driven to get what she wants. She will do anything to make sure that Macbeth stays King.
ReplyDelete-Savannah Chunn
Macbeth started out as a brave soldier. Right before he went to kill Duncan, he imagined a bloody dagger. After he sent 3 murderers after Banquuo (who I thought would survive), he sees Banqou's ghost, but nobody else does. He is going crazy and paranoid.
ReplyDeleteLady Macbeth is still ruthless and determined to keep her position of power. She fears Macbeth will give them away and end their reign of power.
-Monica
Oops, I spelled Banquo wrong. I meant "Banquo"...
ReplyDeleteSome words that I would use to characterize Macbeth as are coward, craven, traitor, tyrant, criminal, murderer, paranoid, insane, demented, deranged, and rabid.
ReplyDeleteI chose these words for Macbeth because he is too much of a coward to finish his murder and he has become insane and deranged after the murder.
The words that I would use to characterize Lady Macbeth are lunatic, tyrannical, power-hungry, control freak, bossy, and pushy.
I chose those words for Lady Macbeth because she wants to have more power now that she knows that her husband, Macbeth, is going to be king.
I am looking forward to what happens next in Macbeth.

Lady Macbeth is the dominant female, like Rochelle form Everybody Hates Chris. :D She's mean, tough, and scary when she needs tyo, but Rochelle is ACTUALLY nice to her kids especially Drew, but not Chris, because eveyone hates him. She kinda reminds me of my mom, because she's scary when she needs to, too. Lady Macbeth sounds like a nutjob sometimes and scares the kids~ :D Macbeth reminds me of Killmoose(Kilmoo, Killmoose? IDK. XD) from Everybody Loves Chris because he's a crazy guy who is really, reall, REALLY random. :D He has guilt problems like this guy from this show on Adult Swim. He had alot of greif when he killed Greed, but he sucked it up like big midget he is! ;D Lady Macbeth is very independent and Macbeth depnds on her like in that song when they say, "She gives me money, when I'm in need~" They remind me of my mom and dad, because my dad's afraid of my mom. :D (She's really scaryyyy... D:) So yeah...

FEAR TEH BUNNEH! SHE WILL TAKE OVER THE WORLD!!!
I think Macbeth is a very cruel but guilty person. He is a crazy, hallucinating, violent murderer. He is like a puppet being controlled by Lady Macbeth, yet he is some what afraid. He is being manipulated to kill and do bad deeds just to get his spot as king.
ReplyDeleteOn the other hand, Lady Macbeth is a cruel, manipulating, fearless, selfish, inconsiderate lady. She only cares about herself and she puts other people in pain. She wants to be in control and have power. There is no fear in Lady Macbeth. She is very confident but cruel.
I think Macbeth is violent for killing Duncan, but once he starts having hallucinations it makes him seem like he cannot handle himself. I think it makes him seem weak, especially when he has others kill Banquo for him.
ReplyDeleteI think Lady Macbeth is very bossy and doesn't have a problem putting Macbeth in his place. She always tells him that he needs to act like a man which I think makes her seem rude. I agree with Ashley on this one, she is very confident.

Macbeth is a dude
ReplyDeleteLady Macbeth is a dudet
if this isnt good enough then im going to write a little more...
Macbeth: He started as a valiant hero, but as more and more people added to his ego he became a murderous villian. He started to change his state-of-mind when he was told by the three witches told him that he would become thane of Caudor then king. Then he starts to go "crazy in the head" ,if you know what I mean, when he sees the floating dagger in the air. then later he gets people to murder banquo and then hes sees his ghost sitting in a chair at a dinner party and you know hes crazy then.
Lady Macbeth: This girl is very queer and demented. She starts in the book when she comes into the scene after Macbeth tells her about what the witches said. she later says that she wishes that she was a man which is reaaaally freaky and i dont think that is very normal... in any case... ya so thats it
This is, Benjamin Bartine the 2nd sighning off.
I agree with Mackenzie's comment. Good work!!!
ReplyDeleteWe are finally midway through the play Macbeth and I think I am finally getting agrasp on what the main characters of the story are like.
ReplyDeleteThere are many ways you can describe Macbeth but I mainly think he is a coward, murderer, and a traitor.
Lady Macbeth is no better. I think of Lady Macbeth as a selfish woman that only wants power.
I like this play very much and I am looking foward to reading the rest of this play.
People keep saying MacBeth was evil, but thats not really true. MacBeth only did what anyone else would have. That's just what it was like back then. Kill or be killed. If he hadnt killed Duncan, Someone would have killed him first. He's not weak, the guy is just confused.
ReplyDeleteAs for lady Macbeth, she's just crazy. She is a power hungry maniac. She is the real evil one. She is just using MacBeth is a way to gain power. She is totally nuts.
shakespeare was a very famous poet he wrote lots little stories. Further than that the only thing i know is that he built two globe theaters.

I think that William Shakespeare is a very boring but a very artistic play maker. His plays are almost like artwork they speak to you in a very quiet voice. All I know is that there is not much known information about him.I expect that the Macbeth play will be very boring but it will teach me a very valuable and important lesson.
ReplyDeleteI know that William Shakespeare is one of the most famous play writes in history. Although little is known about him, his work is well known around the world. He is best known for his plays Hamlet, Macbeth, and Romeo & Juliet

ReplyDeleteI read a lot of Shakespere in FOCUS in 5th grade. My favorite was either Romeo and Juilet or Hamlet. Although he is very famous in the reading and writing world, there is very little known about him. I think Macbeth will be good and intense, like most of Shakespere's writings are. I think it will have a fighting twist to it. I know what it is about because i read a shorter version in 5th grade. I think it will be intertaining.
I think shakesspeare is a very cool writer!! he has written very cool plays that are well known globally. I find his way of writing very interesting <3

While learning about shakespeare, I learned that there is a mystery if Shakespeare was really the writer or if he was only a fraud. Also i learned that shakespeare liked to write about tragic events, but also about commedy. Posted by Sabrina

Shakespear was born and died on the same day, April 23, only differnt years. He wrote famous plays that have lived on hundreds of years because of their "forever" design/layout. Macbeth, I suppose is about the murder, that led to many more, for revenge. I don't know though, but I'll find out soon enough!
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed the shakespear playshop. I learned alot of new things about him, and his plays! The part I enjoyed the most was acting out the plays. I also liked how all the plays we acted ou fit togther. Something new I learned about shakespear was that the more money you payed, the better seats you gotfor the show. I really liked the playshop!
