    Even though I have not finished reading “The Federalist Paper,” I still learn a lot about the foundation of American government and also about myself as a learner during the process. I know that I am more of a visual learner than an auditory learner, but I usually get bored really quickly whenever I read a long text that is full of information or does not have any pictures or graphs. So instead of reading “The Federalist Paper” in one go, I break it down into sections and then use a highlighter to highlight important facts and take notes as I go. These learning tips are not new, but I always find them helpful when I need to analyze the text later on. I also tend to get lost a lot when I read and end up skimming and skipping throughout the text.…

    . Rationale: More than 400 years later, we can relate to the everyday life and situations that Shakespeare and his contemporaries wrote about for people from all walks of life during the Elizabethan era. The plays and poems have universal themes that are as relevant today as they were then, and students will read and explore love, hate, jealousy, anger, contempt, fear, joy, sadness, ambition, evil, guilt and conscience, conflict, madness, and courage as they are transported back in time to experience what morality, mortality, politics, war, and death through battle or bubonic plague looked like in that period. Shakespeare, Jonson, Marlowe, Kyd, and Fletcher were fascinated with language in both drama and verse, and students will experience rich and poetic language as they read and listen to their writings.…
