Title A name given to the resource Educational Resources (11-14 years) Description An account of the resource These educational resources are designed to introduce secondary-school pupils studying the plays of William Shakespeare to the significance that questions of air quality and aerial resources acquire within his drama. In this section, you will be able to access and download lesson plans and associated resources for teaching pupils about the significance of airborne plague in Romeo and Juliet, wind power in The Merchant of Venice, fairy flight in A Midsummer Night's Dream, or the relationship between Shakespeare's fairies and the environment in the latter play. We have designed these education packs for use with pupils aged approximately 11-14 years old, in accordance with the UK National Curriculum learning objectives for KS3 English. In addition, each session comes with individual learning objectives that indicate how the session will promote learning about performed drama and/or environmental history. Each lesson plan is presented as an hour-long session, but we have included suggestions for potential extension activities. These resources could also be adapted for use with older children or within alternative curricula. If you have any feedback on or suggestions for improving these resources, please email the project team at: atmospherictheatre@exeter.ac.uk.
