This review is from: Teaching Shakespeare Into 21St Century (Paperback)

I teach High School English and am always looking for new ways to help the students understand Shakespeare's words. This collection of teaching activities has been very useful. Dr. William Liston's Entry on paraphrasing Hamlet is now a daily activity in my room. There are writing and project ideas that are appropropriate to all secondary and college levels .Great production ideas, and role playing activities too.

Or if you don't then buy this book on how Shakespeare is best taught through film. Don't let your class form opinions of their own or even experience the play by staging it themselves, instead do what these teachers do! It's not all bad, there are some decent articles but they don't talk about teaching.
