Make use of these pictures on Shakespeare to write about his biography, one of his plays and invent one scene. As a final task of the project, you are going to represent that scene in class.

• First, look for information on a reference book or on the web and write about his biography (for websites, see below).

• Secondly, choose a play by Shakespeare and write about these points: characters and their costume, plot, time and place.

• Finally, change one scene of the play you have chosen. You can include new characters but don’t change those of the original. Be ready to represent it in class!!

Good Luck!!
