In this lesson students begin by reading the original text for Act 4 Scene 2 of Macbeth. After reading they are each given a copy of Act 4 Scene 2 of the Macbeth Graphic Novel by Classical Comics (available here: https://www.amazon.com/Macbeth-Graphic-American-Original-Classical/dp/1906332444). Students use the graphic organizer to compare characterization (speech, actions, appearance) between the two texts and determine how the graphic novel helps enhance their understanding of the play.
