Be bold and never fearful! Tempt your scholars with an Anticipation Guide for Measure for Measure. Before reading Shakespeare’s problem play, class members label a series of statements as either true or false in their opinion. (It’s okay to deceive people if your motives are good. Having power gives you the right to exercise power.) After completing the drama, readers revisit the statements, adding the names of characters they imagine would believe each statement to be true. A detailed strategy guide for instructors is also included.
