Characterization

Worked on creating a physical Shakespeare character through business and movement on stage
Poor

There was no characterization AT ALL. Every movement on stage was just the actor being themselves physically and vocally on stage. No reacting to other actors lines at all.
Average

The actors reacted to each other, but all the movements and physicality were just themselves on stage. Wasn't listening on stage to other actors
Excellent

Actors really showed their character through habits they had on stage and STARTED the scene BEFORE they INITIATED the scene.
Renaissance Quality

All of the acting on stage, both physically and vocally, showed the actors moving beyond their own selves and really pushed their character on stage by having lots of habits and big reactions.
Content/Meaning

Sound understanding, analysis, and explanation, of the writing task and text(s).
Poor

Renaissance Quality

Voice projection. Entertainment value.
Poor

Average

Our group is somewhat prepared, but we misread some of our lines. Presentation is basic.
Excellent

Our group is adequately prepared. Presentation is interesting. There were times when we stopped action on stage, because we didn't know lines.
Renaissance Quality

Our group is well prepared. Very entertaining and informative - creative. The "wow' factor.
Command of Language

Understands and can explain Shakespearean language.
Poor

Our group skimmed over or ignored difficult language; We didn't show evidence of understanding Shakespeare's language.
Average

We relied on basic vocabulary comprehension, with little awareness of our audience. We had a difficult time understanding Shakespearean jargon.
Excellent

The group demonstrated a proficient understanding of Shakespearean language that is original, and our class enjoyed our presentation of the scene.
Renaissance Quality

Our group is at an advanced level; we feel like Shakespearean language experts. We did a great job entertaining the class.
Blocking and use of space

Poor

We did not take this assignment seriously. We just stood in one place or barely moved during scene.
Average

We attempted to do a good job but not enough to receive an impressive grade. We moved on stage, but it wasn't motivated. We just paced on stage most of the time.
Excellent

Our group demonstrated enthusiasm, and we presented a dramatic interpretation of the scene. We really used the space.
Renaissance Quality

We invested effort into this activity, and we showed creativity. The scene was taken to a whole new level. We used space and different levels throughout the play. Our movements matched the characters objectives in the scene.
