__Macbeth Reading Journal #1__
Today's journal will have two parts:

Go to 3U Macbeth Links. Click on the Full Text of Macbeth.
 * Part I**.

In this on-line text, go to the scene that your group is acting out. Search through this scene until you find one example of 'shampoo' figurative language. In your reading journal quote the figurative line and then write which of the 'shampoo' it is.

Remember that any 'shampoo' line is always a more important line. That is why Shakespeare used these tricks, to highlight important ideas. So look at the quotation you have found and think about why it is important. Write two or three sentences explaining why you think this line is important in the scene. What does it show about the characters or symbolize?

For an example of how to do this look at my Reading Journal.


 * Part II.**
