On a whim last fall, I decided to assign my students some Shakespeare. The results were nothing short of delightful.
Once a week, a co-teacher and I run a small homeschool co-op for 16 students, where we cover history, science, art, geography, and poetry. We’ve delved into topics ranging from cacti growth to the types of markings on horses to Newton’s Third Law of Motion to the location and culture of Austria, and I now know quite a lot about the Grand Canyon. Poetry might be my favorite subject, however, as I enjoy choosing various poems for the students and coaching them on memorization and delivery techniques.
