Episode 88: COMPARE AND CONTRAST: USING MULTIPLE INTERPRETATIONS OF A TEXT

Brave New Teaching: A Podcast for High School and Middle School Teachers - A podcast by Marie Morris & Amanda Cardenas, Secondary ELA Teachers

A lot of the feedback we get about Shakespeare-related content is that you feel like it’s just too much. It feels hard, and you don’t want to do it. We totally get that, and we’ve been there. But that’s why we get so excited about the things we talk about because we really have found ways to make it a part of the day that you and your students will look forward to. The practice of analysis can get painfully routine. Students read something and then analyze it. But there’s a better way. There’s a way to add a layer to the analysis by visually looking at multiple interpretations of a text.  One of our favorite ways to do this is through film. We’ll share how we’ve used film as a tool, rather than a reward, to solve a problem that many of us face.
