Included are the following: a multiple choice quiz on characters and plot, a close reading worksheet addressing the author’s craft, and answer keys. Materials are delivered in Word Document and PDF formats. By engaging in these exercises, students will:

  • Identify what the text states explicitly and implicitly
  • Define complex words and phrases as they are used in the text
  • Explore how complex characters think, behave, develop, and interact
  • Apply knowledge of literary devices such as metaphor and anaphora
  • Discern the tone of a given excerpt
  • Conduct brief research on the Roman goddess Diana and articulate the similarities between her and Katharina
  • Evaluate Baptista’s attitude toward arranged marriage and articulate how it is both morally sound and unsound
  • Write about Shakespearean drama with clarity, accuracy, and precision

Using this resource for structured guidance, students will improve their ability to present information, conclusions, and supporting textual evidence clearly and convincingly.
