Shakespeare in the Sun ~ Lakewood, Medina & Columbus
Attention all homeschooling folk!
Now offered:
A Bit of Shakespeare in the Sun
Ages 12 and up
Class General Goal: My goal is to make Shakespeare comprehensible and interesting in a fun environment, introducing his comedy and tragedy in a way that encourages students to appreciate, and not fear, his 400-year old plays.
Specific Objectives:
-Have fun
-Have students understand the general playing conditions that Shakespeare wrote his plays for.
-Have students understand iambic pentameter and be able to identify poetry versus prose
-Familiarize students with A Midsummer Night's Dream and Romeo and Juliet -Let students become comfortable in attempting to perform Shakespeare -Introduce students to Shakespeare's humor as well as his tragedy -Give students the tools to continue investigating Shakespeare and the performance of his work
Highlights:
-Depending on availability, a lesson in stage combat and demonstrations of Shakespeare in performance by members of the Cleveland Shakespeare Festival
About me: I'm currently a Dramatic Arts major at Cleveland State University. I've been with the Cleveland Shakespeare Festival for four years now, and done other Shakespearean productions outside of CSF in Medina, at Dover Players, Beck Center's youth theatre, and Chagrin Valley Little Theatre. I have taken classes in Shakespeare or highlighting him at CSU and the Beck Center. After I graduate in the spring, I plan to pursue an MLitt in Shakespeare.
Why: As a college senior considering various careers in the theatre industry, I'm interested in getting my feet wet as a teacher. With the advice of several theatre teachers, I'd like to create a lesson plan and give back to the homeschooling community. In my encounters in college, I've noticed that many drama students have very limited experience with Shakespeare, and when they do it is mostly in a reading capacity. I'd like to make Shakespearean drama accessible and fun to grade-school age students.
Where: One class will be at the Scenic Park Picnic Area in Lakewood off of Detroit Road, another at Allerdale Park (Medina), and a third in the Marysville (Columbus) area.
When: The Lakewood and Medina classes will be for eight weeks (an hour and fifteen minute class). It will be on Mondays at 1:30pm in Lakewood and Thursdays at 2:00pm in Medina, starting the week of June 22nd. The Marysville class will be on Wednesdays from 2:30-5:00pm for four weeks beginning July 8th.
Cost: $20 for first student in a family, $10 for additional students. An additional gas fee will apply to the Columbus and Medina classes.
Contact: Jessi Malicki at either 330.760.0074 or jessisedai@aim.com. Please contact me by June 22nd if you're interested. Class size is limited to 15 students. Note: This class is rated PG-13. I wouldn't want to give anyone an unpleasant surprise.
