TEACHERS LIKE YOU SAID…

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Lori G. says, “This was great. My students were really having a tough time with the language and story. This helped them check their understanding and helped me see areas that we needed to review. They did this in small groups and some solid conversations were heard about the play.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Jennifer W. says, This was helpful for ending up our work on each act, and engaged ALL the students. It is especially helpful for those who have difficulty with the play. Kids with better skills will complete these quickly, but their real value is for the ones who are struggling. A nice wrap-up or review before a test on each act.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Kristen P. says, “These were a great resource I used as a check-in with my students (they range from beginner/ESL to bilinguals) and their comprehension of the play, especially since for some, this was their first time learning Shakespeare. It was easy to use and the students enjoyed this moment (I assume it acted as a sort of pause from all the analysis and language coming their way).
