Some sites that help explain the way people lived in Shakespeare's time. Feel free to do a google search of your own - focus on pages that discuss family life.
Life in Elizabethan England: A compendium of common knowledge
I would suggest that you read over the parts on 'Household', 'Occupations', 'Masters and Servants'. The others might be intersting too.
Peasant life in Elizabethan England
A short account, easy to read, but not too informative of the whole social structure.
Everyday life
Some interesting headings, but not much on family life or women.

Quote of the day
Why do you need a school blog?
Because there aren't enough hours in the school day.
Because sometimes it's hard to get to technology resources in a public school.
Because some students work better at home, by themselves, or from sources other than me.
Because I want my students to be able to say "But I am studying, Mum!" when they are told to get off the computer.
