The target audience is middle and high school students who are studying Macbeth, Shakespeare, and interrelated topics. I especially liked the configuration of the glossa ry, which allows the student to hear the correct pronunciation of the words and phrases. Available in abundance are drawings, photographs, and the multimedia includes audio and video downloads. Students can join discussions through the bulletin board feature called The Interactive Zone. They can read the comments of others, respond with commentary or questions of their own, or answer the questions that have been posted by others.
Kids can email the site with additional comments, information, and suggest additional links.
The other sources portion of the site offers a wide variety of related links for interdisciplinary study opportunities. I particularly enjoyed the trip to Scotland, the background on James I, and the Medieval and Renaissance Yale University site. The biblical and Greek reference sites provide the prospect for in depth study into the structure of Shakespeare s work. Finally, there is a literary elements section that shows the formula Shakespeare used for his tragedies. The Students will find this A rated site easy to navigate, entertaining as well as educational.
