Helpful to new Shakespeare teachers,

This review is from: Ready-To-Use Activities for Teaching Romeo & Juliet (Shakespeare Teacher's Activities Library) (Paperback)
If you are reasonably new to teaching Shakespeare this book has some good ideas to liven up your class. It breaks down the activities into different acts, and it uses approaches that will appeal to different learning styles. There are a number of useful activities, worksheets, and practices quizzes that will get you up and rolling. When a new teacher is stuck, this is one of the books that I loan them. For the experienced teacher, or someone who considers themself well-versed in Shakespeare, this book is a little elementary. It functions great in support, but lacks a little all on its own. I do however find it useful in conjunction with books like Shakespeare Set Free.

New Shakespeare Teacher,
By A Customer
This review is from: Ready-To-Use Activities for Teaching Romeo & Juliet (Shakespeare Teacher's Activities Library) (Paperback)
As a first year English teacher, the thought of teaching Shakespeare intimidated me. Thankfully, a more experienced teacher loaned me a copy of this book. It was a lifesaver. It gave me a place from which to start. The helpful vocabulary lists and exercises, as well as the pre and post reading activities gave me terrific ideas to use in the classroom. I immediately ordered my own copy of this book. I will not hesitate to loan it to the newest English teacher down the hall.

This review is from: Ready-To-Use Activities for Teaching Romeo & Juliet (Shakespeare Teacher's Activities Library) (Paperback)
Honestly, I was expecting a lot of filler activities and throw-away questions for when I was too tired to develop my own.
However, I am extremely impressed. This book has a lot of excellent ideas AND activities that are innovative, solid and encourage critical thinking. My favorite thing about this book is that there are many choices for a particular scene. Therefore, I can customize depending on whether I have a little time or a lot of time. Excellent! I recommend pairing this with the _Shakespeare Set Free_ program!
