William Shakespeare
The Bard of Avon
The greatest playwright of all times

Just a coupla days ago I said, I am turning out to be an addicted blogger. Hmmm…..today when I sit on my best-loved seat, I am unable to get any fodder for a post. Yet, I hope to make one. 

The exam season has started. Probably, the only thing I can look forward to on the creative segment this year is the “English Exhibition”. This inevitably triggers a memory recall – Dew Drops-2010 and Daffodils -2011. So, what would be the English Exhibition called this year? It is quite surprising that I haven’t finalized on a name! 

My heart springs up for sure, when I think such an event, yet I haven’t named it- that’s is Quuuuuaiiiiinnnnnntttttttt! Though I haven’t really zeroed in on a name, I have settled on the theme. 

If you are a student of English literature, the Bard of Avon can always be close to your heart. Teaching Shakespeare is pure pleasure, but sadly I have not been fortunate enough to get much chance. Usually, the higher graders have it on their supplementary readers, but that is not really the real Shakespeare, but just abridged and rewritten versions. 

ICSE offers ‘As you like it’ and ‘Macbeth’, but we have opted Modern Drama. So that is to say, I have missed this wonderful opportunity of teaching it. So to make up for this, I made up my mind to delve into the Shakepsearean World and bring him closer to my lovely students. This way, I plan to salute this great literary genius of all times! English Exhibition-2012  is gonna be Shakespeare and only Shakespeare. Hope it would turn out to be a good one with the students!
