Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A good start
This is a good place to start for getting a base of vocabulary, worksheets, and discussion questions for Romeo and Juliet. It is basically just a collection of worksheets (most of which you won't have time to use) that you can pick and choose from. I usually use some of the questions in discussion. A lot of times I will use part of what they have for a worksheet and combine it with something I have. For the price, this book is a good resource that you will definately find useful.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - New Shakespeare Teacher
As a first year English teacher, the thought of teaching Shakespeare intimidated me. Thankfully, a more experienced teacher loaned me a copy of this book. It was a lifesaver. It gave me a place from which to start. The helpful vocabulary lists and exercises, as well as the pre and post reading activities gave me terrific ideas to use in the classroom. I immediately ordered my own copy of this book. I will not hesitate to loan it to the newest English teacher down the hall.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Helpful to new Shakespeare teachers
If you are reasonably new to teaching Shakespeare this book has some good ideas to liven up your class.

It breaks down the activities into different acts, and it uses approaches that will appeal to different learning styles. There are a number of useful activities, worksheets, and practices quizzes that will get you up and rolling. When a new teacher is stuck, this is one of the books that I loan them.

For the experienced teacher, or someone who considers themself well-versed in Shakespeare, this book is a little elementary. It functions great in support, but lacks a little all on its own. I do however find it useful in conjunction with books like Shakespeare Set Free.
