Looking back on my Shakespeare project with my group of Bekka, Abbie, and myself I felt that it was of the best projects that I have done in my high school career. It took a lot of effort to figure out how to find the best way to mesh all of different ideas together, but I believe we had fun doing it. Working as a group when writing a paper can be quite a difficult challenge, because everyone starts their thoughts out differently, and as each of were writing we would look at another part where another group member had started and think what the heck even is this mess. It was really hard to get used to my groups members writing strategies but once I did I feel that our paper flowed very well together. When talking about actually writing the eight page paper, that was a new experience for my group, not one of us had gone past writing like a four to five page paper and it was a struggle to set up all of our ideas so that we did not get to the point way to fast and then only have like a page worth of discoveries. We had to find ways to prove to the reader our own views on our theory, and make it sound credible. So that was another struggle. One thing that really made this project interesting and somewhat of a hurdle for me, was giving a presentation on Shakespeare. In the past I have only ever read, and been tested on Shakespeare but I have never had to present his ideas. Doing this was a challenge because it forced me to completely understand what my theory was inside and out, but I also had to know every inch of Shakespeare Macbeth. After doing this presentation I felt that it really gave me a better understanding of Shakespeare as an artist.
