    This is a good activity to use when introducing students to Romeo and Juliet. It allows them to think about relevant themes in the text and relate them to their lives from the onset. I think it would motivate students to read on and see how the themes play out. At least that is the goal...

Dire Straits - Romeo and Juliet - 0 views

    Discusion questions at the end are a good way to link the song lyrics to the primary texts. Students love listening to music in class, so I think the song would be a supplementary text to use.
