What truly makes the HELBLING Shakespeare readers stand out is that these readers go far beyond simplified text and a few comprehension questions. Inside, students will find:
- engaging and varied activities
- performance and discussion tasks
- CAE-style language practice
- vocabulary and fluency development
- critical thinking activities
- extensive arts and culture sections
With around 130 pages of additional arts and culture material, this reader can easily become the foundation of a whole CLIL course, combining literature, theatre, history, and language learning in a much more meaningful way.
Students also get access to the HELBLING e-zone, Cyber Homework, the Media App for audio and additional digital materials.
Lair’s tip: Turn the balcony scene into a modern messaging task. Ask students to rewrite the conversation as text messages between Romeo and Juliet. Then compare how the emotions change when the language becomes modern and informal. Great for practising register.
