If you were absent, be sure to read Scene 1, the balcony scene. Get the notes from a partner. We read scene 2. Be sure to answer the following questions:
Describe Romeo's relationship with the Friar.
Why does the Friar know so much about herbs and flowers?
Does he agree to marry them? Why?
Read to the end of Act 2 (all three short scenes). Remember that Act 2 is the "rising action" adding more complications (problems) to the original conflicts set in Act 1.
As you read, find the problems which Romeo and Juliet will have to overcome.
Write them down in your notebook in point forma and you can post-it note them in your text.
