A little theatre history side-track.....

Since grad photos were being taken in our classroom this past week, we took a little detour to do some theatre history.

Three of you are creating an informational poster about the Mystery plays of the middle ages, while the other three are doing the same for Greek theatre.

Make certain that the work is divided equally amongst you.  Make sure you are honest on the reflection sheet regarding your own effort and contributions.  Attendance will obviously affect your role in these creations. 

You will be presenting your work to the class on Wednesday, February 22.

Here is the task sheet/rubric to remind you:
