A fun game to get your learners to remember the key plot points in Macbeth! Ideal for low / mid level learners.
Instructions
Split the students into equal teams.
Twenty questions will appear on the interactive whiteboard. The aim of the game is for each group to answer the questions correctly and to solve the riddle that is hidden behind of the boxes.
Each team, when it is their turn to go, will pick a question that they want to answer. They will then state the number assigned to this question. If the team gets the question right, then the teacher will click on the box and the box will then disappear. A section of the hidden riddle will then be revealed and the team can then take a guess at solving the riddle.
Each question that’s answered correctly is worth 1 point! If the hidden riddle is correctly solved by the team, then this is worth an extra five points!
The team with the most points, wins!
The great thing about the game is that even if the riddle is solved, learners can continue to answer the questions to gain points!

Level 1 Employability: Team Work Task Booklet - Create a Business Plan for a New Business Venture
This resource I have created is a seven page booklet which contains a team activity that has been used many times with adult learners. These learners were completing a Level 1 Employability Course with City and Guilds and had to complete a module named: ‘Working as Part of a Team.’ This booklet covers unit 4 and unit 6 of the team working module.
This group project gives learners a set of instructions to create a business plan that will be used to launch a new business venture. They are required to deliver this business plan in the form of a presentation, which they will used to show potential investors or clients of their services. The team will be required to plan everything from the company logo to advertising for staff members to join their firm.
Depending on the ability of your learners this task usually takes between 3- 6 hours to complete before the learners deliver their presentation.
All instructions for this task are in the booklet, as well as task sheets that will enable them to complete this task and also to reflect on the
work they have completed.
This activity has also been used with KS3 learners recently with great success.

24X LGBT / Pride Discussion / Debate Tasks - English Language / PSHE / Recent Headlines Cards
3X Flashcard sheets that contain 24 different class discussion debate topics. I made this resource for a PSHE lesson. I chose 24 different headlines, from articles published around the world, that would encourage a class discussion. Learners will put forward their opinions regarding a particular headline.
You could cut out the cards and a give a card to each student. The student then needs to write their views regarding the headline and they could share this with the class.
You could also use these cards as prompts for a debate on an issue relating to the headline. I have added the source on the bottom of each card so that learners can conduct further research on the headline.
These sheets are double sided ( with an LGBT background on one side of the cards). Laminate and cut out and get your student to choose a task at random. These are ideal to use once the students have read the book.
