Remember how I had my students rewrite a scene from Macbeth as if they were live-streaming it?

@stopthatgirl7 William himself would very much have enjoyed that. :) In contrast to many people today, he didn't seem to have any issues with inventing a new word here and there when it sounded cool... Was that the origin of the assignment?
Show threadStop ThatMay 20
@zappes We’re reading Macbeth in an interactive reading class, and this was to verify that they fully understood everything happening in the captain’s speech in Act 1, scene 2, where he’s relating the battle between Macbeth and Macdonwald to the king. They did! 🤣

@matt Oh, I love it. They did the assignment correctly and proved they understood the Shakespeare, and were able to show their own creativity and tone. This is great.

@icil If it helps, at one point, one of the members of the pair who did that one said, “No, no, you can’t phrase it like that. It’s too intelligent. Streamers are stupid.” So they were going for as brainrotted streamer as possible, and nailed it.
