Time:

Aims

t
o develop students’ awareness of changes in grammar since Shakespeare’s day, and some 
key items of Shakespearean vocabulary, so that students are better able to understand 
Shakespeare in the original
 

to introduce students to some famous quotations and a well-known Shakespearean speech 
from Romeo and Juliet
 
 
Introduction 
According to linguist David Crystal, only 5 to 10 per cent of Shakespearean English is different from 
modern English. However, even that small percentage can confuse students and make the plays and 
poems seem quite inaccessible. In this lesson, students will learn about grammatical changes since 
Shakespeare’s time, and, depending on their first language background, may discover that 
Shakespearean English is actually closer in some ways to their own language (many Latin-based 
languages still have the equivalent of the ‘thou’ form, and more conjugations of the verb than modern 
English). They will also learn som
e common vocabulary items and use their knowledge to ‘translate’ 
Shakespeare into modern-day English, as well as attempting to write in Shakespearean language 
themselves. 
Preparation and materials 
Make one copy of the worksheets for each student. If you feel it would be useful, you may also wish to 
make and give your students copies of one or both of the following: 

Glossary of Shakespearean language (Task 3) 

Juliet’s speech and a modern equivalent (Task 4) 
Both of these pages can be found at the end of this lesson plan.
