This blog has come about because of a chance comment by one of my students. He said that he wished that there was somewhere he could go for ideas on how to teach Shakespeare to his class. I'm going to attempt one idea each day.

Shakespearian superinjunctions

Identify the characters who have secrets in the play your students are studying?  What would their injunction forbid the world from finding out?

Who would out them and why?

Create a news broadcast for the radio revealing the above facts with discussion as to the consequences.

Discuss why its important for the audience of a Shakespeare play to have an overview and insight into why characters behave the way that they do.
