This engaging and informative lesson enables students to develop a detailed understanding of the dramatic devices used by Shakespeare throughout The Tempest. In particular, students define a wide range of dramatic devices, before identifying and analysing their use in Act 3 Scene 3 of The Tempest.
The lesson follows a step-by-step learning journey, in which students learn through:
Defining each of the main dramatic devices;
Reading and comprehending Act 3 Scene 3 of the play, identifying and analysing the dramatic devices;
Applying this understanding to a range of ‘Bloom’s Taxonomy’ related learning activities;
Creating their own play-script scene, using the range of dramatic devices appropriately and effectively;
Self-assessing their learning throughout the lesson;
Included is:
Whole lesson PowerPoint - colourful and comprehensive;
Dramatic Devices Cards;
Act 3 Scene 3 Extract (freely available online);
Dramatic Devices Bloom’s Taxonomy Activities Worksheet;
Comprehensive lesson plan.
Resources are provided in PDF (to maintain formatting) and Word (so that they are easily editable - they can be found in the zipfile)
The lesson contains opportunities for group learning, speaking and listening, peer assessment, and whole class discussion. I originally used these resources with year 10 and 11 classes, however colleagues have used them for between year 9 and year 13 with some adaptations.
