and do the tasks for each of the roles by clicking on the pictures below. 4. After doing
the activities for each role, collect all
the information and pictures that can be useful for your final report. 5.
Examine
and analyse the information that you have found. Discuss
within your group what you have got, what you consider more interesting or relevant
and how you are going to organise your work.
Ask about what you do not understand, suggest
including some more information about any other aspects of the biography or the
play that you may find useful or interesting, etc. 6.
