Your Task:

Using your acquired knowledge from this semester on William Shakespeares Romeo and
Juliet, you are going to create a Blooms Ball. Each side of the Blooms Ball must meet the
requirements. You must present your Blooms Ball on your Final Exam day. Each side (12 sides
total) must be colored, neat, include correct writing rules, and each side must include the
following:
Sides:
1. Create a book cover for the play. Include the author and decorate the cover.
2. Information about your author must be at least one paragraph. You must find this
information on the internet.
3. Describe the protagonist of this story. Include both physical and personality traits in
your description.
4. Describe the antagonist of this story. Include both physical and personality traits in
your description.
5. Draw and label the plot diagram including the denouement.
6. Include a theme of your story and draw a picture.
7. Create a quiz over your text. You must include 5 multiple choice questions and 5
short answer questions.
8. Analyze literary devices by finding a literary device in your story. Write the literary
device, the line, and draw a picture.
9. Analyze literary devices by finding another literary device in your story. Write the
literary device, the line, and draw a picture.
10. Analyze literary devices by finding another literary device in your story. Write the
literary device, the line, and draw a picture.
11. Pretend you are a movie critic and rate this story using five starts. You must justify
your rating in one paragraph.
12. Find at least one symbol in your story, draw it, and describe what it symbolizes.

Directions to make the Blooms Ball:

1. Get circle patterns of the Bloom Ball from the teacher. (You will need 12 circles total.)
2. Do not write or draw on the edges outside of the lines. They will be folded and used to
connect your ball.
3. Follow the directions below for each circle. Write or type information NEATLY in each
circle. Be sure to write complete sentences and check your spelling!
4. Illustrations must be colored
5. When you are finished writing and coloring, write the number on the bottom of each
circle, cut out the circles and assemble your ball by gluing or stapling the folded edges
together (refer to assembly instructions).

How to Put Your Bloom Ball Together

Choose a panel to be the

base. Select 5 panels to
staple to this base. Lay
them out, consider the
orientation, and staple the
sides together. Repeat with
the remaining 6 panels.

After stapling the panels to

the two bases and to each
other, you should have two
halves.

Staple the two halves

together to create the
dodecahedron, your
completed Bloom Ball.
