For #ShakespeareWeek we have been learning about ‘Romeo and Juliet’. We thought about how it would feel to live your life caught in a place of conflict between two feuding groups and then improvised some drama based on our ideas.

Primary school children took part in a Henry V-inspired flash mob on the green outside Westminster Abbey this morning, to mark the start of #ShakespeareWeek . Great to see @ShakespeareBT getting children involved this week with events across the country.

I've just been filming for a half-hour video for school with @ShakespeareWeek
It's about the language in Shakespeare's plays and it's full of practical ideas for writing.
It's aimed at KS2 but work for KS3.
It'll be streamed in early March.
Watch this space.

Hi Year 1! I hoped you liked drawing Bottom. But of course you did - we know drawing is fun. Happy #ShakespeareWeek.
Y1 have been learning about the work of William Shakespeare. The children have listened to A Midsummers Night Dream, learned about Shakespeare’s birthplace and have been entertained by the author, @MichaelRosenYes , Celebrity @ben_cajee and illustrator @MartinHHBrown
