Learning lines for a play:)

Haloha!
Now in your school life there is always going to be one point where you do a play, a poem or speak to an audience. Whether it's in drama, english or whatever whether you like it or not. And a big part in this is of course learning your lines especially if it's a big part. I have done many plays so far in my life, a lot out of school but a few in school and in November i am doing a massive play of Macbeth where I am Lady Macbeth. I am really honored to be taking this part but there are a lot of lines and i mean a lot. 
1. So there are many ways to learn your ways but the way i like to do it is sectioning your lines into two or three sentences at a time and just repeating these to yourself until you know them without looking. This is basically all i do and i find is a really effective method. 
2. However other people i know they tend to write there lines down and that sinks in for them but i just can't do that. 
3. Another way that sometimes works is to make a song of your words so that it is catchy and easier to remember. 
4. I think those are the three main methods but once your pretty happy with knowing your lines get a friend/parent to go over the lines with you like filling in other people's voices.
I hope this has helped any of you out there and please leave a comment of how you revise or plays you've done in the past. You can email me on beautylicious588@gmail.com or tweet me
Thankyou
