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.

Shakespeare's Biography IV

Bring a range of non-fiction children's books into the classroom.  Ask students to make an analysis of the language, layout and imagery.  They can do this as a list, a poster or a mind map.

Now ask them to write Shakespeare's biography in a format appropriate for the 8-11 year old age group.
