Shakespeare Character Journal Shakespeare Character Journal Students will receive a character to follow through the play. They will journal from that character's point of view. Each entry should be 3/4 to a page long. Include things like: Why does the character act that way? What is making them do this? What problems are in the foreseeable future? Stay in character and write whatever comes to mind. It must be appropriate. Students will then write a paragraph on how they themselves reacted to what was going on in the play. Things to include: What is going on? Is this difficult to understand? Why are people reacting this way? A character might not be in the scene, this is ok.
