Love at First Sonnet: Romeo and Juliet Meet | Shakespeare Uncovered

Use this video to look at how the lovers begin "talking in sonnets" when they meet and how their language of martyrdom predicts their tragic love affair. This lesson is best used during or after a reading of Act I, Scene 5 of Romeo and Juliet. Using video, text, graphic organizers, and text-dependent discussion questions, students will learn how the shared sonnet provides both an introduction to Romeo and Juliet's love story and a road map for the tragedy to come.
