Refer to the Newsela article "Alas, Shakespeare Won't Be Taught in This Class."

What is Mark Powell's argument against teaching Shakespeare in the classroom?


Shakespeare's words are most meaningful when heard and spoken, not when simply read.

The focus on Shakespeare prevents students from learning about more modern authors.

Shakespeare's works should be replaced by courses in ethnic studies.

Shakespeare lived centuries ago, so his point of view is not relevant today.
