About the Book:

Shakespeare: To Teach or Not to Teach provides the basic tools for anybody (even you!) to introduce children to Shakespeare’s great works.

The answer is a resounding To Teach! There's nothing dull about this guide for anyone teaching Shakespeare in the classroom, with activities such as crossword puzzles, a scavenger hunt, warm-up games, and costume and scenery suggestions. Cass Foster and Lynn Johnson have created an excellent resource for teaching or directing Shakespeare. This book is filled with great ideas for different teaching methodologies and plenty of across-the-curriculum activities. You and your students will enjoy the clever means of incorporating math, science, art, journalism, music, social studies, physical education and social issues into the study of Shakespeare. Shakespeare: To Teach or Not to Teach is a must for every school library and for anyone teaching Shakespeare, whether in the elementary grades or high school.
