Shakespeare Vocabulary Word Wall

Description

Reinforce your William Shakespeare vocabulary unit with an eye-catching display of key terms about the Bard’s works and the Elizabethan world he lived in. These posters are also a perfect bulletin board idea for The Shakespeare Stealer or any historical fiction set in London during Shakespeare’s time.

After you introduce a term in class, your students will refer to the word wall as a visual cue when using the words in class discussion of Shakespeare or in written analysis of his poetry and plays. I have noticed that even when I cover my word wall for standardized testing, students glance to that spot in the room to recall the words they want to use.

Included in this Shakespeare vocabulary set:

1. 32 full-page printable posters with terms, definitions, and example sentences relating to Shakespeare’s poetry and plays, the Globe Theater, and the Elizabethan period
2. Word cards formatted for double-sided printing with definitions and example sentences on the back
3. Editable word wall cards to add your own words and definitions
4. Foldable word list to place in your students’ interactive notebooks
