It is one of a series of lesson plans to accompany the short animated videos of six of Shakespeare's plays on LearnEnglish Kids.
Introduction
In this lesson plan, which can be delivered as a 45-minute lesson or as shorter segments over three lessons, learners will be introduced to the Shakespeare play Twelfth Night through a short animated video.

Finally learners will develop their creative writing skills by imagining and writing about disguising themselves as someone for the day.
Aims
