Juliet's Potion Concerns - A Close Reading & Writing Task - Romeo and Juliet

Juliet’s Potion Concerns: A Close Reading & Writing Task

This guided writing task begins with a close read of act 4, scene 3, and culminates in a writing task that asks students to identify the best adjective to characterize the majority of Juliet’s potion concerns, and to support that claim with evidence from the text.

In addition to the 13-question close reading guide (with answers), this product also comes with an outline for organizing text evidence, a rubric, examples for how to acknowledge the opposition, examples for how to analyze specific language in the text evidence, examples for how to write about an author’s use of diction, and a guide for easy-to-implement presenting text evidence vocabulary.

This product is excerpted from a 35-page presenting evidence unit, which is available in my shop for just $10:
