This powerpoint lesson guides students through Act 2 scene 2, exploring the language and the power interplay between the two characters. It considers how the shock and guilt of what Macbeth realises he has done is conveyed in his language and in the abrupt exchanges between him and his wife. Contextual information is included to secure understanding of the faith framework of the play. In addition to targeted analysis and questions about interpretation of key lines, this lesson ends with a sample question (one each for AQA and Edexcel) to give students an insight into exam-style questions and start them on the road to writing about Shakespeare by trying out the first part of the part-to-whole question format. Suitable for GCSE AQA and Edexcel as well as upper KS3.
