Hi . . . I'm experimenting with recording a series of readings and explications of Shakespeare's sonnets (and maybe a few other things) this summer. I've posted the first "lesson" to my blog at shakespearejr.com and would love to hear any constructive feedback on the idea.

The first one covers Sonnet 18 (Shall I compare thee to a summer's day) and consists of a recorded reading, then a recorded discussion and guided paraphrase, and finally a brief 5-question worksheet (in .pdf) to check for student understanding.
