This product contains 9 thoughtful essay prompts for A Midsummer Night's Dream by William Shakespeare, all perfect for a 5 paragraph essay or a short open response for a test (I have used them in both ways). A detailed rubric is also included.

Here is an example of a prompt:

Although A Midsummer Night’s Dream is categorized as one of Shakespeare’s comedies, much has been written about the darker side of this play including some of terrible ways the characters treat one another. Identify three separate instances in which the play is dark and discuss why each instance could be considered tragic. __________________________________________________________________________________________

Looking for a final writing assignment on Shakespeare's Julius Caesar? This resource features everything you'll need to lead students through the process of writing an analytical essay about Julius Caesar.

The resource features 5 writing prompts which will motivate students to think with nuance about important themes in the play. The resource also includes scaffolding to help students select evidence, generate an outline, and begin writing. For teachers, the resource features an assessment rubric which can be used to grade and provide feedback on students' analytical writing.

As a bonus, this resource also features a two-page handout on how to embed quotations within an analytical essay.

(2 pages)
