Exploring the Main Themes of Hamlet - PowerPoint

By Mark Barrett

This is a 40-slide PowerPoint presentation which would be great as a starting point with a class about to embark on a study of Hamlet OR as a revision-aid once they have studied the play.

It includes questions and discussion points as well as a review quiz at the end.

The PowerPoint is constructed as follows:

  • Firstly, it provides an overview of the play, discussing Hamlet’s quest to avenge his father’s murder while grappling with indecision, madness, and moral dilemmas.
  • The historical context is explored, highlighting the political instability and religious conflict in early 17th century England, which is reflected in the play’s portrayal of a corrupt and troubled court. The theme of revenge is examined through Hamlet’s procrastination and the contrasting decisiveness of characters like Laertes and Fortinbras.
  • Madness is discussed as a reflection of political instability and corruption, with debates on whether Hamlet is truly mad. The theme of corruption and decay is analyzed through political corruption, physical decay imagery, and moral corruption.
  • The theme of appearance vs. reality is explored through deception, manipulation, and the play-within-a-play device. The theme of action and inaction is examined through Hamlet’s hesitation, moral qualms, and philosophical musings.
  • The presentation also includes discussion points and analysis, potential examination questions, and a revision quiz. It concludes with reflections on the enduring relevance of “Hamlet” and its exploration of human nature, complex characters, and themes of power, politics, and deception.

The odds of finding a review game for this specific test on TeachShare are pretty slim, so save the time spent searching for something and create a game yourself

Introduction to William Shakespeare | Handouts and Worksheets on Shakespeare, the Globe Theater, and More | The ULTIMATE Pre-Reading Bundle for ANY Play!

By Rigorous Resources for High School English

Teaching a play by William Shakespeare? Want to provide students with a fascinating overview of the author's life, the construction of the Globe Theater, the language of early-modern English, the rhythm of iambic pentameter, and more? This 50-page EDITABLE resource has EVERYTHING you could possibly want to introduce ANY play by William Shakespeare....

This comprehensive bundle includes a Biography of the Bard, an account of the construction of the Globe Theater, handouts and exercises to help students understand Shakespeare's language, a Shakespearean insult generator, worksheets and quizzes introducing students to iambic pentameter, and more.

Here's what you'll find inside this 50-page resource bundle:

William Shakespeare Biography: This 4-page biography of William Shakespeare explains the conditions of his early life and schooling in Stratford-upon-Avon, how he became involved in the London theater scene, the impact which the death of his son Hamnet had upon his writing career, his gradual transition from comedies to tragedies, and more. Includes a comprehension check with answer key. (5 pages)

The Globe Theater: A 2-page handout on what inspired Shakespeare's acting company to build the Globe Theater. A dispute with the landlord of their old theater motivated Shakespeare's company to meet with lanterns in the middle of the night, disassemble their old playhouse, and transport the timber across the Thames River to the plot of land where they would build the Globe. How did the construction of the Globe infuse new life into Shakespeare's company? How would Shakespeare make reference to the Globe in plays written after its construction in 1599? Includes a comprehension check with answer key. (4 pages)

Shakespeare's Language: A 3-page handout on the crucial topic of Shakespeare's language. Literary scholars have pointed out that "the life of Shakespeare's plays is in the language." What's so special about Shakespeare's language? Did he really invent 1,700 new words? What kinds of words did he invent, and how do they contribute to the meaning of his plays? Includes a comprehension check with answer key. (5 pages)

Renaissance Glossary: This 2-page glossary features 50 words that appear frequently within Shakespeare's plays but are no longer used in modern-day speech: adieu, beseech, ere, fain, naught, prithee, troth, wot, etc. Familiarizing students with this words will make their reading experience much smoother! This glossary includes a definition for each word as well as an example of how it's used in Shakespeare's plays. (2 pages)

Translation Practice: This 2-page worksheet features 20 brief quotations from a diverse range of Shakespeare's plays. Challenge students to translate each quotation into modern English. This exercise gives students a change to demonstrate their understanding of the words in the Renaissance Glossary. Includes answer key. (4 pages)

Decode the Idiom: This 1-page worksheet features 12 quotations that feature idioms which Shakespeare invented: wear my heart on my sleeve, all that glitters is not gold, I have a charmed life, as good luck would have it, and more. Challenge students to identify the idiom by filling in the word missing from the quotation. Then have students explain the meaning of the idiom. Includes answer key. (2 pages)

Blank Verse: A 2-page handout on the when and why Shakespeare employs blank verse (i.e. unrhymed iambic pentameter). This handout explains how blank verse emerged as a popular verse form as well as what distinguished Shakespeare's usage of blank verse. When and why do some of Shakespeare's characters break with the regular rhythms of blank verse? Why might some characters alternate between using verse and prose? (2 pages)

Scansion Practice: Students learn to identify iambic pentameter by scanning 10 well-known quotations from Shakespeare's plays. Includes answer key. (4 pages)

Quizzes on Meter (x2): The 2 quizzes on meter are designed to asses whether students are able to accurately scan Shakespearean lines. Each quiz features 10 quotations from Shakespeare's plays. Includes answer keys. (8 pages)

Shakespearean Insult Generator: Shakespeare's characters are exceptionally creative in their elaboration of insults. Indeed, some scholars have suggested that the insults in Shakespeare's plays amount to their own education in wit. If your students are sufficiently mature, you could use this exercise to invite them to generate their own original Shakespearean insults. (2 pages)

The resource will download as a Zip folder which contains the entire 50-page unit in two separate formats: Word Doc *and* PDF. Because the Word Doc is fully EDITABLE, you'll be able to customize it to match your teaching style and/or the skill levels of your students — year after year! If you don't have Microsoft Word, you'll still be able to access a PDF version of the full unit — which is easy to navigate and quick to print!

If you have questions about ANYTHING related to Shakespeare, please don't hesitate to get in touch! This unit was designed by a Ph.D. in English who has devoted over 20 years to studying Shakespeare — and who currently teaches a course called "Shakespeare's Masterpieces." I LOVE hearing from fellow teachers who share a passion for great literature. Wishing you an amazing experience with the Swan of Avon!

Happy teaching!

Counting Descent by Clint Smith: Theme Tracking sheet + Socratic Seminars!

By The Red-Haired Reader

Are you looking for an interactive, student-led activity and assessment for Clint Smith's Counting Descent? Look no further!

This product includes 2 different assignments:

1. 'During Reading' Theme Tracking Sheet

2. 'After Reading' Socratic Seminar Discussion

The tracking sheet presents students with 4 themes they will track throughout the course of 10 poems . I usually have my students do this with a partner. It's up to you if you want to assign them a theme to focus on, or just let them choose their 10 favorite poems to analyze.

After they've read and analyzed the text, they'll prep for the Socratic Seminar! I usually use this as my final assessment.

You'll see two different packets of Socratic Seminar packets- packet A and packet B. Each packet contains three different discussion questions that require students to answer and provide two quotes from the text to back up their answers. Students are also required to come up with three additional questions they will ask if there’s time in their seminar. Finally, the packet has a page where each student will monitor a partner in the opposite circle. They will make a check each time their partner speaks, and paraphrase meaningful comments their partner makes. The file also contains a rubric for you to use while your students are discussing!

When you print out the file, you’ll see packet A on the top half of the sheet, packet B on the bottom half, and then the rubric as the last page of the file. Remove the rubric and print one out for each of your students. Copy the rest of the pages, cut them in half, and staple them. Each student will receive one half-sheet booklet; packet A or packet B.

Give your students adequate time to plan for their Seminar! I usually give them a full class period (40 minutes for me), but you could have them do it for homework, or over the course of a few days. The day of the Seminar, you’ll assign partners with opposite packets. Let A discuss for as long as they need (usually 30-ish minutes for me!), then flip-flop your circles and have B discuss afterwards.

My students LOVE Socratic Seminars! I have found the fishbowl discussion format works much better when you give each group three different questions so you don’t hear the same discussion two times, which is how this product is set up. I have used Socratic Seminars in small literature circle groups, as well as with the whole class at once. Please ask if you have questions!

Any Novel Reading Journal Project-Alternative Book Report

By Meggen Loew

Students will fill these pages in response to any novel they are reading, whether independently or as part of a whole class reading assignment. Each Project includes a student page with instructions and directions to complete each journal page, as well as a grading rubric to use these journal pages as a whole novel project. You could also use these pages individually and pick ones to use for a specific concept to teach or reflect on. Level one is geared toward middle school-aged students or those who require additional support or guidance with a reflective journal piece. Level two is intended for high school students and requires more in-depth analysis and writing skills. Both levels are included in this product, allowing you to choose the level that is most suitable for your students or to mix and match as needed (note that the grading rubric will not apply if you combine pages from one level with those from another).

Reading Journal Project 1: This level is intended for middle school students or can be used as a less in-depth study as Project 2 is.

Included Pages:

  • Journal Cover Page
  • Book Overview
  • Characters
  • Main Character Spotlight
  • Plot Outline
  • Theme & Setting
  • Conflict
  • Reflection Questions

Sentence Diagramming Bell Ringers: Weeks 1-16 BUNDLE

By Ms. J's ELA

These sentence diagramming bell ringers will last four full months. This bundle contains sixteen Google Slide presentations- one for each week. There is also an assessment for the end of week four, the end of week seven, the end of week twelve, and the end of week 16 to test student knowledge. The daily activities should last 5-10 minutes. EVERYTHING IS EDITABLE.

THIS BUNDLE COVERS:

- Subject

- Predicate / Verb

- Helping Verbs

- Articles

- Adjectives

- Adverbs

- Prepositions

- Adjectival Prepositional Phrases

- Adverbial Prepositional Phrases

- Coordinating Conjunctions

- Compound Sentences

- Compound Subjects and Predicates

- Compound Adjectives and Adverbs

- Compound Prepositional Phrases

- Linking Verbs

- Predicate Adjectives

- Predicate Nominatives

- Transitive Verbs

- Direct Objects

- Indirect Objects

Answers are included for all diagrams.

Sentence diagramming is so helpful when teaching students parts of speech and sentence structure. The repetitiveness of diagramming for a bell ringer is extremely beneficial for students. I tried grammar workbooks for years, but my students hardly retained anything. Daily sentence diagramming made them remember their parts of speech, and was an amazing foundation for my students to have when we started forming different types of sentences. They picked up on fixing run-ons quickly as well because of their diagramming foundation.

✔️Need to teach Greek & Latin along with Context Clues?

✔️Looking for way to get your students thinking critically & making connections?

✔️Need to integrate vocabulary in a meaningful way?

This activity includes worksheets, task cards and Google Quizzes for vocab practice

This is a natural way to build in vocabulary to daily instruction that includes context clues and the Greek and Latin.

Included:

  • Greek & Latin Roots Exploration: Dive into 45 carefully selected words, each featuring 9 impactful prefixes from the rich realms of Latin and Greek languages.
  • Word Definitions: Equip your students with a solid understanding of each word, laying the foundation for deeper language comprehension.
  • Fill in the Blank Sentences: Immerse your class in the learning process with cloze sentences that challenge them to apply their newfound knowledge in context.

ESL Speaking and Listening Activity Taboo Game Classic #2 - Oral Communication

By Love Learning Languages - French Resources

Looking for an engaging way to get your ESL students to build their communication skills and vocabulary? Taboo is a fun speaking and listening game where one student has to guess a word based on clues given by other students. The catch is that they cannot mention anything that is included in a list of taboo words.

This game is Set 2 in my ESL Classic Taboo Bundle Sets 1 - 2 - 3.

Click here to see more of my English resources.

You can easily modify this game to play it with all levels!  You are going to love hearing your students speaking in English to each other about all kinds of vocabulary words in this classic version that has no particular theme.

Object of the game:

One player tries to get his teammate to guess the word at the top of a card. The player must give clues, but he can't use any of the Taboo words in his description. The taboo words are written beneath the underlined word at the top of the card.

Teams score points for each word successfully guessed. The team with the most points at the end of the game wins.

Beginner students should be allowed to use the TABOO words printed on the cards. This will encourage them to use new vocabulary and will help them in forming sentences to use as clues.

This ESL Taboo vocabulary and speaking game includes the following:

  • How to play ESL Taboo (beginner and advanced levels)
  • 50 printable taboo cards - 4 per page

What teachers are saying about my ESL Taboo Speaking games:

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "The kids had so much fun with this game &  it really opened the door to all kinds of new vocab!" - Casey O.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "I tutor some intermediate level English learners in middle school and high school and they really enjoyed this game! We played it a few different ways as suggested in the directions. Thanks!" - Ms. Rosemary

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "Students had a fun time with this! Thanks!" - Jennifer L.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "This was a very useful resource to purchase and I would recommend it to any teacher! Everything you needed was there and it was very organized resource. Looking forward to using it again this year!" - Kathleen E.
