This lesson explores the following structural choices in Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream:
- Foils - how the different characters highlight different characteristics about each other.
- Genre - comedy and the idea of the the problem play (and how the ending might relate to this)
- Genre - literary allusions to Romeo and Juliet
It uses group and paired work with guiding questions and sentence stems to help students to use structural terminology and to think about Shakespeare’s structural choices in a more academic and analytical format.
The lesson ends with a mindmapping activity to help students to make connections between the knowledge learned in this lesson and their prior learning. This can then be built upon as students continue in the unit.
