Love in its many forms is the most important theme in A Midsummer Nightâs Dream. The romantic encounters and subsequent confusions are the greatest cause of conflict in the play.
The play gives us variations on the theme of love â idyllic young love in the case of Hermia and Lysander; passionate and possessive love between Titania and Oberon; love lost and found again as with Helena and Demetrius; love as conquest as in the case of Theseus and Hippolyta. Shakespeare makes a point of infusing A Midsummer Nightâs Dream with more than just a two-dimensional notion of romantic love â he shows us the darker side where we see loveâs inconstancy, its violence, its possessiveness, and its illusory nature.
This lesson plan is designed specifically for Shakespeareâs classic comedy. It lasts approximately 90 minutes (depending on the class size) and has activities for all types of learners. The photocopiable student sheet with the activities is included, as well as a separate sheet with the answers.
Twelfth Night incorporates many classic elements of comedic theater. At the core of its structure lies a network of complex romantic liaisons (Orsino loves Olivia, Olivia is smitten with Cesario and later Sebastian, Viola has feelings for Orsino, while Sir Andrew and Malvolio are attracted to Olivia); disguise (the plot centers around Viola disguising herself as a male servant to survive after being shipwrecked in Illyria); mistaken identities (Viola and Sebastian are twins so alike that nobody can tell them apart); trickery and mischief; a rich offering of song and dance; the satire of hypocrisy, excess, and arrogance; a fleeting period of chaos and confusion; concluding with a resolution where all misunderstandings are resolved and three marriages take place.
This ebook features an extensive lesson plan focused on âTwelfth Nightâ and includes multiple activities intended to last at least 90 minutes. A unique printable worksheet for learners is included, along with the answer guide.
The tragedy of political aspirations
A courageous Scottish general called Macbeth is given a prediction by three witches that he will someday be King of Scotland. Driven by ambition and urged into action by his wife, Macbeth kills King Duncan and quickly transforms into a tyrannical leader. Core themes in Shakespeareâs Macbeth encompass: the conflict of good and evil, the perils of ambition, the impact of supernatural elements, the disparity between appearance and truth, as well as loyalty and remorse. A prominent theme in Macbeth is ambition, evident in both Macbeth and Lady Macbeth. They are lured by the notion that Macbeth will ascend to the throne â Macbeth is uncertain about his choices, but his wife is relentless in pursuing her desires â she considers her husband a coward and seems willing to go to any lengths.
Ambition drives one to wickedness - it empowers Macbeth, increasing his resolve, yet ultimately leads to his wifeâs madness.
Ambition ultimately destroys Macbeth as well, as he turns into a tyrant and consequently alienates his friends.
This lesson plan, which lasts nearly 6 hours (depending on your class size, of course), provides a comprehensive analysis of William Shakespeareâs renowned play. It comprises spoken and written tasks, arranged into four worksheets. The responses are also incorporated.

The creation of instructional videos has gained popularity, whether through the internet or motion pictures. More people are getting involved in teaching and creating engaging movies and videos, which are primarily shared on Facebook and YouTube. The sector is flourishing.
But because movies evoke strong feelings and convey stories about people who are similar to us, they have a considerably greater impact than blogs and instructional videos.
This is a thorough list of the best teacher films ever made, arranged by rating. Some of the teachers will inspire you, while others will struggle, and some will be absolutely remarkable. They are all deserving of your consideration. Rotten Tomatoes provided the audience ratings and comments, while IMDb provided the plot descriptions.
