Alright, there's this project where I have to write an essay about the term "blank verse" and how it's used in Shakespeare's writing (more specifically, The Tragedy of Romeo And Juliet). That's not the part I need help with, see I have to make a visual to refer to. For example, some one who had to do an essay about the term "climax" could construct the scene of the climax for their visual. And I have no idea what my visual should be, I need suggestions.

Blank verse has meter but not rhyme. The most common blank verse is iambic pentameter.
Iambic pentameter goes duh daa duh daa duh daa duh daa duh daa
Romeo and Juliet definitely has iambic pentameter. This is an example of how it is used. Much of Romeo and Juliet is in iambic pentameter. Of course, iambic pentameter is not the only type of blank verse. There is trochaic pentameter, iambic hexameter etc.
As most of Romeo and Juliet is in iambic pentameter, it is very routine. So maybe you can do something that's very routine. Maybe like your schedule of what you do everyday because I know my life is routine. I get up, brush my teeth, dress, get on teh computer, go to english, go to french, go to history, go to the computer lab, go to lunch, go to gym, go to chemistry, go to calculus, go to either math team, scholastic bowl, TAC or home, do homework, get on the computer, eat dinner, computer again, take a shower, read, go to sleep. this happens every day...so maybe you can do it on that.
I actually had a project similar to this. We had to make an "artifact" on the 1920s. We could research on whatever we wanted. It was very loosely based. I researched aviation and I made a balsa stick and tissue plane powered by a propeller and rubber band and it flew. The key to these projects is to have fun and do what you like doing.
