After viewing Baz Luhrmann’s depiction of Romeo and Juliet's marriage, the class listens to a recording of Act 3, Scene 1, lines 59–110. Then, groups consider how Shakespeare develops Romeo’s character through his interactions with Tybalt and Mercutio during this fight scene.

Classroom Considerations
- The ninth in a 20-lesson unit that uses Romeo and Juliet as an anchor text
- Scenes from Baz Luhrmann’s Romeo + Juliet are used throughout the unit as illustrations
Pros
- The 14-page resource includes a list of the Common Core standards that form the basis of the lesson, the plan, a vocabulary list, a discussion question and sample responses, a Quick Write prompt, and a written homework assignment in which class members indicate who they feel is responsible for Mercutio's death
Cons
- All the lessons in the unit follow the same format
