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.

New Beginnings

This is creative.  Ask students to choose a character- create a mind map showing what they know about that character.  Now ask them to decide how they could help that character escape into a different story or their own story depending on whether it is a major or minor character they have chosen.

Ask students to work on their own and then in pairs to share ideas.  Feedback and then let them loose with their imaginations.
