Design your own Shakespearean Villain (Worksheets)

Created for KS3 students as a final working from home project after they had finished studying ‘The Merchant of Venice’.

Using the worksheets, students craft their own character and create a thorough backstory for their villain.

Finally, after writing a short script for a key scene, students then craft and perform a soliloquy as their character.

I have included PDF files of the worskeets for ease of printing, in addition to word the document format which allows you to edit and adapt to suit your classes. There is also a brief powerpoint which includes some examples.
