This discussion forum provides a space for my Grade 7 and Grade 8 students to discuss their research findings and identify connections on the subject of Shakespeare. other students are, of course, welcome to join the discussion 🙂
What to discuss? Well, here are a few prompts to get you started:
- Share interesting facts about Shakespeare’s life and the Elizabethan/Jacobean era.
- Identify common features of his plays (e.g., use of verse/prose, comedy/tragedy).
- Share relationship diagrams based on the play you’re reading.
- Comment on the status of women in Shakespeare’s plays.
- Share your favourite Shakespeare insults.
- Share Shakespeare memes.
Once comments have appeared below, the discussion can develop by responding to others 😉
