Week beginning 12th October 2020
This week we start our work on William Shakespeare and A Midsummer Night's Dream (AMSND)
Start by using the information on Shakespeare and his times to create a fact file/poster.
Then, watch the Animated Tales version of AMSND and complete the question sheet as you go along. You may need to watch it again to get all the answers (and I will post a copy of the answers next week so you can mark your work). When you are ready, produce a storyboard of the main events of the play.
