Macbeth

Grade: 11

Rationale: This unit for grade eleven English students will focus on Shakespeare’s Macbeth. The assignments that are allocated are ones that each student will be able to work on individually. This provides the students a chance to challenge themselves and their abilities to complete the given assignments with their best effort. Students who have learning disabilities and students who are gifted will receive the same assignments but my expectations for the students will vary according to each individual.

My goal for this unit is for students to be able to appreciate the work of Shakespeare. I realize the language can be difficult but if we are able to overcome that, then students will be able to realize how much Shakespeare has to offer. A lot of projects, lessons, and assignments will be enjoyable so hopefully students will be able to make sense of Macbeth and enjoy the process while learning at the same time.
