** BY BARIŞ ERGÜN ** I liked their lesson plan in general. In this literature lesson plan they aim to increase learners’ familiarity with Shakespeare, his language and the characters in the book. The level of the students is intermediate. It is nice for them to enjoy reading Hamlet as they study in METU Art School. It is nice to inform students about the play, the era and background knowledge of the characters in the play. After teacher gives information about the play, some quotations are examined. Teacher distributes a journal hand-out and wants students to write some quotations on the left column and write their reflections and analysis on the right column. This double-act journal is a good way for students to follow the play and understand acts. In the guided practice part, students are paired to select one quotation from each act that record in their double-entry journal and write it on a piece of paper. Students exchange the quotes and their partner identifies the speaker and the situation in which the quotation was spoken. Teacher assessment was also nice and essay assignment is appropriate for the learners’ level. I think this is a good example of a literature lesson plan
