In fifteen ninety-nine
William Shakespeare
an Elizabethan playwright
performed his political
and social plays
at the Globe
Theater in Lo-on-don.

This site is basically Shakespeare for kids, even with coloring and puzzle pages, and this site also has Shakespeare for kids. Here's another site with links, powerpoints, games, and stuff for teachers.
