A two to three lesson resource getting students to look at how humour is created in Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream.
Students will be encouraged to look at scenes including the Athenian court, the fairy court and the mechanicals.
They will also be encouraged to consider how the humour on the page relates to the physical humour often enacted on the page.
Finally, they will also be supported in learning and using literary terminology such as malapropisms.
Activities include:
- Pair and group discussion tasks
- Short clips of the play in performance
- Fun quizzes on terminology
- Annotation practice
- Carousel activities
- Group work activities
- Production of a revision resource
The lesson could also easily lead into a formative or summative essay practice.
Three practice papers are included which include both passage-based questions and whole-text questions.
