Macbeth's Motifs Tracking Chart

Use this chart to track motifs as they appear throughout the play. For this to be most useful describe what you think the motif is and provide the act, scene and line numbers for the point in the play you noticed this motif. Not everyone will recognize all motifs in all acts. Fill in atleast three boxes for each Act. The first box is filled in as an example. Save this file so you can turn it in again in lessons 3 and 4 also.
