Teaching Literature and Multimedia* - World from Words is Slovenian project that explore the potential of multimedia nad hyper

English Literature Lesson Plan: Tragedy and the Tragic Flaw in Literature - Associated Content

Lesson Plan Format

WARM -UP ACTIVITIES:
1. Teacher :Hi ! How are you today? -short conversation of relaxation

2. Teacher : How about studying Shakespeare today?[or any other author you want]. Has any of you ever read or seen a dramatization of one of Shakespeare`s plays? How about Hamlet ? What does the word Hamlet tell you? Is it a man`s name or a girl`s name? Was he English ?

3. At first try to give each student a sheet of paper with the text[part of the literary text] you want to discuss. The text should be clear but with some obvious[ more or less] grammar mistakes in it so that your students

Good luck
Take care

Hi

I received your message and I have already replied to it. More details tomorrow. I have to think more on this problem. I`m sure I`ll come up with new and better ideas after a short{!} night`s rest. It`s almost 2 o`clock in the morning!!

Take care.
