Introduce your Shakespeare unit with an Amazing Race internet search! This can be used with ANY of William Shakespeare's plays or poetry.
Your students will race one another to find facts about Shakespeare's life, works, coined words, etc.
They won't feel as though it is just another worksheet as they are racing the clock and their classmates. The questions allow for excellent discussion starters after the race is complete.
Directions, student handout, and answer key are all provided.
A great way to tie in popular culture with a classic. Created by Tracee Orman

FEEDBACK
The Type A Teacher (TpT Seller)
Kids were fairly engaged in this intro to Shakespeare activity. The questions were clear, although a few of the web sites listed as resources didn't seem to contain much useful info.

My ELA class loved this assignment. They have studied Shakespeare in the past, so this was a great review activity. Thanks again for another super resource :)

Great way to start my Shakespeare unit! Most of my students knew nothing about him and this was a really engaging way to hook them! Also useful for practicing research skills using the internet!

This was a great way to get students thinking about and exploring Shakespeare. I used it with my grade 8's and they had a lot of fun!

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
Subject Area:
I've been teaching at my current public high school for twelve years, and have a total of 16 years experience. Most of my experience is teaching high school English and journalism classes; however, for several years I taught an art history class. I teach all levels--from honors students to special education students; therefore, I'm constantly modifying my assignments to fit my students' needs.
