All students are to TYPE and submit their QFR charts by the START of NEXT THURSDAY'S (June 9th's) class.
In order to pass this assignment, you will need to submit three components:
1) A printed copy of a TYPED QFR Chart featuring questions, facts, and reactions for EVERY SINGLE SCENE of the play. Your QFR Chart should be divided by scene, with a total (mix-and-match) of FIVE items of EITHER questions and/or facts and/or reactions for each scene.
2) An e-mail copy of the QFR Chart of the play as described above. (This protects me against cheaters, and it prevents you against accusations of cheating). This e-mail should be sent to john.meehan@pgcps.org.
3) The PAPER copies of your original QFR Charts, which should be stapled to your final typed copy of your QFR. (Staple everything you have together and submit it at once).
Digital QFR Chart Template
To make this assignment easier for you, there is a digital QFR Chart template hosted online that you can download and save to your computer. After you have downloaded this document, you can plug in whatever questions, facts, and reactions you might have.
To download the Romeo and Juliet QFR Microsoft Word template, click here.
(When prompted whether to "share" this file or "download" it, you'll need to download it and save it to your computer in order to enter all of your QFR Chart information).
Note: If you are unable to download the electronic QFR chart, you can certainly create one of your own. It must be typed, and it must list a mix-and-match total of FIVE items (questions AND/OR facts AND/OR reactions) per scene.
***Reminder: If you missed a scene, lost a QFR chart, can't seem to download the attached document, or failed to pick up your QFR charts from class, YOU ARE STILL RESPONSIBLE FOR TYPING ALL OF THE MISSED MATERIAL. NO EXEMPTIONS, NO EXCUSES.***
