Blog#6- Tweets
Welcome to the world of Twitter! This week, each of you must select five characters from Romeo and Juliet and send a Tweet as that person. There are some guidelines:
- You can only use 140 characters/letters to express your thought. You must be concise and brief!
- You must Tweet something that the character would be thinking or feeling; do not retell what happened (no plot summary)
- You must use five different characters
Your Tweets should look something like this:
“I’ve found the girl for me! No more pouting in the woods.” #Romeo
“So happy my dad threw that party last night; first kiss, and it was a good one!” #Juliet
Good luck, and have fun!

In
From an old argument now a new fight occurs….
Good luck, and you may use any tool to help you.
