Activity Overview
Another great way to engage your students is through the creation of storyboards that use vocabulary from Antigone. A Frayer Model can help expand on an important and complex word or phrase that is integral to the work being read.
For example, an essential concept in Antigone is free will. Throughout the play, characters struggle with choices that they make and which inevitably have drastic outcomes. It is important for students to be able to distinguish free will from related, but contrary, ideas, like destiny and fate.
