Overview
Designed for the classroom, this resource book (spiral bound for easy photocopying) contains activities and exercises to help the teaching of A Midsummer Night's Dream. Although it was designed to be used alongside the Classical Comics graphic novels, it can be used with any version of the play. It includes a broad range of topics including: structure, listening, understanding, motivation and character as well as key words, themes and literary techniques. The exercises have been approached from a cross-curriculum perspective so that they cover not only literature and literacy, but also history, technology, drama, reading, speaking, writing and art. The age range is 10 to 17, but of course within that span exists a broad spectrum of skill levels. Therefore, this study guide includes activities for all, providing many opportunities for differentiated teaching and for the tailoring of lessons to meet individual needs. Examples of some of the activities include: Background Character Language Understanding the play Drama/Art and many more... A CD is included that contains the pages in PDF format so that they can be used on any whiteboard or local intranet system.

Reviews
The Study Guide is a wonderful resource. Although rather text heavy it has some terrific lesson ideas and the Teachers' answer section at the back is a welcome inclusion. Linda Lorenza, Head Of Education The Bell Shakespeare Company, NSW, Australia The Classical Comics resources that I have used are invaluable for teaching at all levels. My students have found them enormously helpful in preparing for their exams as they have allowed me to create more inventive and imaginative teaching resources.
