What follows is a series of activities and lessons designed to address the objectives, understandings, and essential questions that guide this unit of study. Any of these could be removed or modified if necessary, but together they constitute a cohesive exploration of perspective, knowledge, culture, and forgiveness in The Tempest. These lessons are organized sequentially as pre-reading, during reading, and post-reading activities. Some of them represent the application to the study of The Tempest of assignments or structures that are ongoing and routine in my English classes. These could easily be modified, incorporated into another classroom for the duration of the unit, or dropped altogether. I include them because I feel that they are an important element of my practice and are particularly well suited to an examination of the play from multiple perspectives.
