3. Romeo and Juliet: Final Projects!
We will be completing our Romeo and Juliet unit by creating a variety of individual and/or group projects.  Altogether, you may earn up to 100 points on this assignment, which will be worth 20% of your final grade!
How you earn those points is up to you. You may choose whichever projects you like, so long as they total 100 points.  For example, you may do five 20 point projects OR two 40 point projects and one 20 point project.
Most projects are individual, but M, O, P, Q, and R either have to or can be completed with partners or groups.
