Othello | Digital Theatre+

Lesson one focuses on Deceit and Jealousy in the play and lesson two looks at Masculinity and Trust
Each lesson plan has been designed to deliver a full 60 minute lesson, but can also be broken down into individual activities
The aim is to get students energised and ready to access the text by engaging them in its themes and characters
Kick-starting the study in this way will ensure that all students can proceed into reading, talking and writing about the text with confidence and fluency

Activities are suggested with the CCSS for ELA in mind. Please see the lesson plan for further information. Teaching remotely? Here are the virtual toolkits for Deceit and Jealousy and Masculinity and Trust.

The theatre teachers and students in Lewisville Independent School District feel blessed to have the resources Digital Theatre+ provides. The content and curriculum provides opportunities for our students to develop their skills in critical, logical, reflective, metacognitive, and creative thinking. We cannot thank Digital Theatre+ enough for the valuable experiences our students are enjoying.

Digital Theatre+ has been highly effective both in classroom interactivity and assisting effective planning. The resources available for teacher and student are specific and concise from highly respected sources. I have saved 3-5 hours of planning a week through use of Digital Theatre+.

"To teach The Crucible to my junior English class, I used Digital Theatre + to flip my classroom. My students would watch a scene before discussing or reading it aloud in class. I also made extensive use of the cast and crew videos. Finally, the study materials for the plays helped me plan my classroom activities. Thank you to everyone at Digital Theatre+ for making these resources available."
