Picture a Story: Twelfth Night

Picture a story is a website that allows students to make pictures and create recorded text to go along with the story. My sophomore students have been asked to create an example of the last scene from Twelfth Night (Spoiler Alert! IF you haven't read the 12th night, you may not want to view the sophomore's work.) Their job is to recreate the scene and explain how all three of the ironies fit into the final scene.

Hopefully they will post the URL (web address) for their story here.

What do want to know about Shakespeare's Twelfth Night?

Whenever I read Shakespeare, he brings to mind many questions. What questions do you have about the Twelfth Night? Under the comments of this blog right a question that you have concerning the controversy, themes, vocabulary, era or something else. Find the answer online and write it in such a manner as someone else looking at this response would consider you an expert in this area.

I am looking for vocabulary, style, and grammar. You start with 10 points and can possibly get 12 (ha, for the Twelfth Night.) or 1 depending on your professionalism.

Hey Everyone,

December first is here which means the Holidays are in full swing!! I would like give all the buildings in my district a little cyber holiday present.

I keep track of a blog called iLearn Technology, which has given me a wealth of tech innovation and information since I began following in July. Today's blog is all about digital advent calendars for the classroom. I invite you all to check them out, they are pretty cool! What I found for you guys, though is an advent calendar created on Wix, by the author of this blog. It is a Web 2.0 Advent Calendar. It is so adorable and December first already has a cool Web 2.0 tool that is becoming more and more popular.

Anyway, I hope you all find this entertaining and informative, and I wish you all the best during the close of the semester.

Happy Holidays and thank you iLearn Technology!!!
