Shakespeare: to be or not to be!

As in 2016 we are celebrating the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare's death, the English Club put their hands to work and organized the board of the Department of Foreign Languages with this theme. Besides that, the Club selected some of Shakespeare's famous quotes and prepared some posters with them to be displayed on the boards around the school. They all had the hashtags #ShakespeareLives and #EnglishClubCMSM.




 The English Club also prepared a Shakespeare Week for all the students at CMSM. The Elementary School Students watched some videos produced by the British Council and did a written activity about one of Shakespeare's plays. The plays were Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet, Twelfth Night, Macbeth and A Midsummer Night's Dream. The High School students watched a documentary about Shakespeare, produced by Miramax as a bonus feature of the movie Shakespeare in Love. After watching the documentary they also did a written activity. All the videos are subtitled in English. The links for the videos are:

    this activity was really interesting, cause it's curious how we use some words and don't even know from where they came. I learned that some phrases and expressions of our vocabulary were created by Shakespeare, like 'so so', 'break the ice', 'love is blind' and so much more!

    Learn more about Shakespeare's life and his plays was awesome. It's impossible to talk about english without mention Shakespeare. ''We know what we are, but know not what we may be.'' <3

    I love Shakespeare's phrases, one of my favorites is "Have more than you show, speak less than you know."
