The 'Hamlet' workshop is not far away and the last touches are being put into the various resources that will be used throughout the day. The teaching approach to this Module is probably the most important factor in covering the content and skills development needed for students to access the upper bands. Oftentimes, too much time is spent on deconstructing the text itself or examining how many different ways it has been produced or criticised.
Student response skills are just as important, particularly in developing a personal interpretive 'voice'. Context, content and construction are typical ways into the text but the real discriminator will always be the ways in which students are able to evaluate the play's language. Fortunately, a great deal of material is available online for students to research in order to arrive at an informed perspective of the play's literary worth.
Here is a taste of 'Hamlet' for you to evaluate.
