The goal of your blog is to express the thoughts, feelings and history of your character in a variety of ways. As you design your blog, you should always consider whether you are representing your character accurately, based on the text’s given circumstances. It is fine to add details to your character’s life as long as they are appropriate to our school context and in keeping with the was the playwright has brought the character to life.

It is important that during lesson time the work set is completed, anyone found using the internet for other reasons that those stated in the lesson will be asked to sit quietly and return to finish their work on Friday afternoon with Mr Rennison.

Everyone’s blog must have all of the following:

At least four posts written from the perspective of your character from various points in the play. Three posts should be at least 200 words each. Keep in mind that if you want your blog posts to appear chronologically then you need to adjust the order in the account settings section.

At least one post must have a related image within it.

You must input sidebar links to the other pages for your research; which you will also create in future lessons. These will include (Social, Cultural, Political and Historical research into the play and a rehearsal notes blog).

A header with a title that matches your character and blog content.

Meaningful quotations related to your character

A photo of your character (as you imagine him or her) with a brief description of them (role in life, relationships, goals, location, etc.)

A photo of you in your costume.

A link to a video or an embedded video

An addition set of research links grouped around a theme
