William Shakespeare.
William Shakespeare is considered by many to be the greatest playwright of all time, although many facts about his life remain shrouded in mystery. He lived during the reigns of Queen Elizabeth I and King James I and coined hundreds of new words and phrases that we still use today.
His books can be quite challenging to read for grown-ups, never mind children! However, Andrew Matthews has rewritten a selection of his plays so that children can read and enjoy them. If you would like to read one of Shakespeare's plays, I have a selection in my office that you are welcome to borrow.
All I ask is that you have a really good go at reading one of the plays and post some information on my blog.
It can really help if you read a play in a small group so that you can help each other. You could find a quiet space in the playground or on the field to read at lunchtime perhaps.
