Julius Caesar by Shakespeare Lesson Plan Ideas
Teaching Julius Caesar by Shakespeare is a fun and interactive experience. It takes about six weeks to teach this entire play. If you are mapping this play out for the first time, you might start simply with the start date and culminating ending activity. Decide how much history to teach. Students will need support with remembering characters and events, so reading questions help. You might also create universal themes to guide your first unit. Some include corruption of power and loyalty vs. betrayal. When I began teaching and developed my first Julius Caesar lesson plans, I spent too much time prepping my classes with information and not enough time interacting with the play.

Build a Classroom Library for Engagement
English teachers who build classroom libraries must decide on organzational structures and where to buy books for their libraries. Make friends with librarians, book store owners, and employees. Children and teens quickly grow out of books. Not every book will fit every reader, so some books will be in perfect condition. Books for your library are available. Building a classroom library inexpensively is possible. Ask for donations to your classroom library. Leave meaningful and kind feedback on local store’s Facebook pages; be sure the owners know your name and face! Finally, lots of books will work for some students even if they won’t work for every student so don’t fear experimenting if you have a deal on inexpensive classroom books.

Setting Activities for Any Piece of Literature
How language arts teachers cover the setting with young readers matters a great deal. Historical fiction and dystopian readings are two examples of attention needed for setting activities. Setting activities come in a variety of forms and images, and sometimes students need orchestrated lessons to fully grasp the story’s time period, location, and on. For when you need a quick activity to study a novel or short story’s setting, this list will inspires something for your secondary English students.
