A Midsummer Night’s Dream – PREORDER

Product Description

A Midsummer Night’s Dream—Shakespeare’s flight of fancy and fantasy into fairyland—is one of his most beloved comedies. But its apparent breeziness should not obscure the fact that it offers the reader a deep, contemplative exploration of the true meaning of love. Is what we call “love” something rooted in feeling and emotion and therefore irrational, or is it made manifest in freely chosen acts of self-sacrifice, inseparable from the act of making the rational choice and acting upon it? Is it eye-love, love at first sight, cupidity? Or is it much too noble to enslave itself to the lower passions?

Check out the A Midsummer Night’s Dream Set from Memoria Press. This set features the famous text from Shakespeare, the Student Guide, and the Teacher Guide. The Student Guide contains vocabulary studies, reading notes, comprehension questions, Socratic discussion questions, work with quotes, and literary and rhetorical devices. Each of these lessons contains vocabulary work, journal prompts, quotes, and comprehension questions. The Teacher Guide provides all answers to questions, and quizzes and tests.

Our study guides train students to become active readers. Students think about what they have read and learn to identify the important content of each story. These study guides also teach the advanced skill of composing answers that are both clear and concise, a difficult skill at any age. Writing is thinking, and good questioning stimulates the child to think and write.
