Shakespeare Readings and Circle Frame




Last night you considered "What's Love Got to Do With it?" Tonight, for homework, you should read the two short articles about Shakespeare and Elizabethan Theater. Add new ideas from the articles to the bubble map. Use separate colors for each article. Your bubble map should contain 4 colors that indicate the following sources: prior knowledge, power point presentation, William Shakespeare reading, Elizabethan Theater reading. Expect a quiz at the end of the week. And remember, "The course of true love never did run smooth"( Act 1.1.136). How true this is in, Shakepeare's time as well as our own. There are always bumps along the way when we care about someone else. It really doesn't matter whether they are caused by fairies or by the human condition.

Remember your charge this week is to master the plot and characters of the play, next week we will dig more deeply into the good stuff: language, literary terms, themes, and images.
