PROCESS

Step 1

You will work together in groups of four.  Find three other students you´d like to work with.

Step 2

Each of you is going to do different things.

Number 1 becomes a specialist of Shakespeare's life and work. Make a short list of his most famous works.

Number 2 will go back to The Renaissance and the Elizabethan age. How was Shakespeare influenced by his time, how did it influence his work.

Number 3 is going to find out about the Theatres, actors, costumes and the customs of these days.

Number 4 will introduce us to one of Shakespeare's most famous plays, Romeo and Juliet. When did he write it, when was it first performed etc.

You can find all the information you need in the ´bronnen´. You can also use resources you have found yourself, that is up to you. Read all the information thoroughly, gather all the information you need and put it together on a big poster.

Time: 90 minutes.

Step 3

After you have completed this, it is time to prepare your oral presentation. Each of you has to give a (rather fluent) speech on your own topic of about 2 or 3 minutes. So it is very important to prepare it well and to practice a few times.

You are allowed to write down your speech on a piece of paper if that makes you feel more secure.

Time: 45 minutes

Step 4

Now it is time to give your presentation. Use your poster and whatever you think is useful to give a fluent presentation. Each group has got about 10 minutes.

Time: 60 minutes (depends on the number of groups)

Step 5

The teacher and students will evaluate each speech according to given criteria. You will have to listen carefully to each presentation  in order to give a fair evaluation.  Evaluation forms will be provided by your teacher.
