Take on the role of a teacher who is helping students understand Macbeth. Choose one scene from the play and create 12 to 18 annotations, or explanatory notes, to
explain the meanings of words and figurative language and to analyze the poetic
structure. Then write one or two conclusion paragraphs explaining how
Shakespeare's language supports the tone and character development in the scene.
Your assignment should include the following elements:
• Annotations that explain unfamiliar words and expressions in a scene from
Macbeth, including the pronunciation and origins of at least two words
• Annotations that describe the meaning of the figurative language in the same
scene from Macbeth
• Annotations that show the meter of three to six lines of the scene
