Abridged and Modified Macbeth Side-by-Side Text and Questions / 60 pgs
Macbeth was the first Shakespeare play I ever taught, and it helped me appreciate how much fun your students can have while acting out a drama in the classroom.However, this experience also helped me understand what aspects of a Shakespearean drama frustrate students and teachers. Some of the characters are confusing, some scenes do not advance the plot or are not school appropriate, and some of the language is dense.For these reasons, I created an abridged and modified version of Macbeth.

Abridged and Modified Romeo and Juliet Side-by-Side Text and Questions Bundle

In an effort to make the text more accessible for students, I eli

Abridged and Modified Julius Caesar Side-by-Side Text and Questions Bundle
While I love teaching Shakespeare, I have to admit that there are parts of his plays I sometimes want to skip. Some scenes are too dense for students or not closely tied to plot. I feel this acutely with Julius Caesar, which I read with sophomores.For these reasons, I created an abridged and modified version of Julius Caesar. Every scene has been condensed. Essential but complicated words and ideas have been footnoted. Less essential but complicated words or phrases have been modified.Plus, I ha

Short Memoirs - Read Then Write a Memoir- Hook, Theme, & Polishing Focus
Students read, analyze, then create their own short Memoirs. Memoirs show that you value student experience, voice, and creativity. Memoirs nurture a safe space in my classroom, so it is excellent for back-to-school. At the start of the school year, I prefer to do shorter readings for two main reasons: 1) to get students back into reading and 2) because the class list is often still in flux. I want a new student to be able to integrate quickly. That said, the Memoir unit works well at any point
