ELA 9 Discuss and support Themes of Romeo and Juliet

Welcome back in 2016, Nines! We’ve a few more things to do to conclude our study of Romeo and Juliet.

Today you each need to sign into your own blogs and create a new post titled Romeo and Juliet: Themes to Consider. You’ll write a short paragraph response to any five of the following themes:

  1. The generation gap between young and old
  2. The uselessness of violence
  3. Stubbornness and pride leading to death and heartbreak
  4. The strength of young love
  5. The dangers of dishonesty
  6. Revenge leads to destruction
  7. Fate often controls lives

For each of your short paragraphs, you need to:

  • first explain what is meant by the theme topic
  • explain how it applies or is found in the play R&J
  • refer to at least one specific event as an example of the theme
  • explain how that event relates to the theme
