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.

Pictures in the mind.

This is a warm up activity.

Choose a quote.

Ask students to identify pictures that this quote suggests to them.

Ask them why they suppose Shakespeare used these words in this particular context.

Or highlight a single word in a quote and ask students what they think Shakespeare means by that word.
