Activity Overview


A fun way to modernize a high school level novel or play is to re-imagine them as they might unfold on social media. It's also a great way to assess how well students comprehended the story, themes, and characters as they read. In this activity, students will create profiles for key characters in a novel or play. Students may select one character to focus on or, if you would like to further this activity, students can create profiles for all of the key characters. This example uses the Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare, however, any story can be used!

The profiles and what is included on them should be drawn from the text itself, or from inferences students are able to make. They should include conversations and interactions through the form of private messaging, timeline posts, and more. To expand this activity into a group project, assign each student a character, and have them work with a small group to recreate the story.

An alternative to this assignment is to create and print out social media page worksheets for students to complete offline, or give them the choice if they'd like to create digitally or with pen and paper.
