SET THE STAGE in your classroom with this educational resource, designed to whet your students appetites for Shakespeare and to help you creatively present and teach great literature. The single MP3 disc includes a powerful full-cast audio drama that students enjoy and absorb with a teaching pack of audio-linked materials and read-along scripts as pdf files to print, view or project for the whole class to see. Shakespeare the works is an audio voyage of discovery that takes listeners back in time to EXPERIENCE the world in which Shakespeare lived and worked; to understand how and why his legacy is so important, so innovative, and so influential and popular today. Within the full-cast educational drama are excerpts from A Midsummer Night's Dream, Hamlet, Henry V, King Lear, Macbeth, The Merchant of Venice, Othello, Richard III, Romeo and Juliet, The Tempest and Twelfth Night. The teaching materials have been especially designed to accompany the drama and conversational commentary from the PassMaster, played by Joan Walker. Each project includes class discussion topics, research tasks, writing exercises, drama activities, essay and coursework suggestions; supported by worksheets, maps, diagrams, charts, timelines and text excerpts. Created by teachers and theatre-in-education experts the resource will help your students to develop crucial study strategies as well as formulate, support, and express ideas with confidence; to achieve their potential, whatever that may be.
