Macbeth Character Map
http://www.anoisewithin.org/wp-content/uploads/downloads/2014/01/ANW_Macbeth_Character_Map.pdf
I really liked this character map and it isn't too hard to understand or as confusing as other ones that I found

What about My Masterpiece?
I realized how I wanted to change my masterpiece, it still would have to do with dance, but I feel now it's going to be more focused towards what I possibly want to pursue in life. I'm really excited about it right now, but what I'm hoping on doing is a workshop for kids on the beginnings steps of ballet folklorico. I would be kind of like a 2 day boot camp and I'm hoping on reaching out to not only our schools but other schools and hopefully have other students participate as teachers and with more volunteers we would hopefully get more kids to come from all over Santa Maria. Currently I'm trying to fix times, I feel that right now I need to focus on publicizing it, while also making some phone calls and seeing who might be interested in teaching kids some new dance moves that will hopefully inspiring them to learn more about their culture.

Love is Blind
Macbeth starts off blind for the love of his wife he doesn't see all her flaws like the audience but that's because they don't feel anything special for her. Macbeth seeks to impress her and not be looked down on as a coward by his wife. Everybody seems to look at him differently than his wife which I think just makes his wife's views wrong because she is the only one thinks badly of him and its not because she knows him in a different way but its because she has different morals than him.
Meet Macbeth
1. Macbeth was introduced through indirect characterization by this quote, " for brave Macbeth--well he deserves that name-- disdaining fortune, with his brandish'd steel, which smoked with bloody execution."
2. "Fair is foul and foul is fair"- the quote sets the story in a dark and evil mood and foreshadows something bad to happen
3. Shakespeare gives hints through exposition of who the the characters are, he uses indirect characterization to give an idea of how to expect a character. Along with that idea that Macbeth will have a rise to power.
4. In the beginning Macbeth was praised by those around him so we get this idea of how our protagonist is going to be, yet with lady Macbeth always seems to be downcasting. Shift in power and maybe some disappointment because Macbeth doesn't protect himself from last Macbeth.
5. I feel that a theme that will be carried out throughout the story will be the struggle for power, and not only am I referring to Macbeth becoming king, but also with the relationship between lady Macbeth and Macbeth.
