The Shakespeare Channel

For Grades 6 to 12

Are you looking for a new twist to teaching Shakespeare? Have you been searching for a way to integrate technology into your teaching? Do you want to motivate your students to connect to Shakespeare’s writings? Then, this is the project for you!

The Shakespeare Channel is an interdisciplinary project that uses technology to broaden your students’ learning experiences. It immerses your class into the life and times of William Shakespeare, fosters a deeper, richer understanding of his works, as well as engages and encourages your students’ natural creativity.

This project involves students in a simulation of launching a new cable television station, The Shakespeare Channel. Students work cooperatively to plan and implement programming on the cable channel, based on research and their understanding of a Shakespearean play. In addition to addressing performance standards in Reading, Writing, Listening, and Speaking, this project provides interdisciplinary activities that address performance standards in Social Studies, Mathematics, Science, and Art.
