A Midsummer Night’s Dream
An interactive learning experience based on the play by William Shakespeare
Welcome to the Shakespeare Online Learning Module! In this digital space, you will be exploring William Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Included in this blog are opportunities for you to unpack the play through reading, writing, media, and more. Additionally, this space contains a wide variety of learning modules and activities for you to complete, as well as a final task that will test your knowledge and synthesize what you’ve learned. Everything represented in this website can also be found within the Ontario Curriculum and its subject-specific expectations. This course will focus on the expectations for Grade 10 Academic English. These guidelines directed how the modules were developed, how the activities were created, and how the tasks will be assessed.
This blog is designed to work with you; interactions with the site can be done at your own pace and in your own time. Each module focuses on a specific aspect of the play, with each providing a number of tasks for you to complete. You’ll see a space for you to submit your thoughts on each page that a question is asked. A level of choice will always be provided to ensure that you have the means to complete every task in any way you choose.
Please remember to contact us with your email address, so that you can be added to this space as a contributor, in order to submit your work via blogpost! Once you receive the invite, you’ll need to create a WordPress account if you don’t already have one, so that you can fully participate in the course.
You can feel free to use whichever edition of the play you have the easiest access to, whether it be an online source, or hard copy. Click here for some links to where you can find the text.
