Lesson Plan on Macbeth

Lesson Plan on Macbeth
Drama, Creative Arts, Literature, ELA, Reading, Middle School, Lesson Plans, Teacher Tools

The tragedy of political aspirations A courageous Scottish general called Macbeth is given a prediction by three witches that he will someday be King of Scotland. Driven by ambition and urged into action by his wife, Macbeth kills King Duncan and quickly transforms into a tyrannical leader. Core themes in Shakespeare's Macbeth encompass: the conflict of good and evil, the perils of ambition, the impact of supernatural elements, the disparity between appearance and truth, as well as loyalty and remorse. A prominent theme in Macbeth is ambition, evident in both Macbeth and Lady Macbeth. They are lured by the notion that Macbeth will ascend to the throne – Macbeth is uncertain about his choices, but his wife is relentless in pursuing her desires – she considers her husband a coward and seems willing to go to any lengths. Ambition drives one to wickedness - it empowers Macbeth, increasing his resolve, yet ultimately leads to his wife's madness. Ambition ultimately destroys Macbeth as well, as he turns into a tyrant and consequently alienates his friends. This lesson plan, which lasts nearly 6 hours (depending on your class size, of course), provides a comprehensive analysis of William Shakespeare's renowned play. It comprises spoken and written tasks, arranged into four worksheets. The responses are also incorporated.

Lesson Plan on 'A Midsummer Night's Dream'

Lesson Plan on 'A Midsummer Night's Dream'
Drama, Creative Arts, Literature, ELA, Elementary, Middle School, High School, Lesson Plans, Teacher Tools, Worksheets & Printables

Love in its many forms is the most important theme in A Midsummer Night’s Dream. The romantic encounters and subsequent confusions are the greatest cause of conflict in the play. The play gives us variations on the theme of love – idyllic young love in the case of Hermia and Lysander; passionate and possessive love between Titania and Oberon; love lost and found again as with Helena and Demetrius; love as conquest as in the case of Theseus and Hippolyta. Shakespeare makes a point of infusing A Midsummer Night’s Dream with more than just a two-dimensional notion of romantic love – he shows us the darker side where we see love’s inconstancy, its violence, its possessiveness, and its illusory nature. This lesson plan is designed specifically for Shakespeare's classic comedy. It lasts approximately 90 minutes (depending on the class size) and has activities for all types of learners. The photocopiable student sheet with the activities is included, as well as a separate sheet with the answers.
