How does Shakespeare present attitudes to gender in ‘Macbeth’?
Students so often write about gender dynamics in ‘Macbeth’ with clumsy generalisations that examiners can’t abide. This lesson aims to encourage specific and mature contextualised understanding of gender in the 1600s and within the play itself.
This 30-slide PowerPoint explores how Shakespeare exploits and subverts attitudes to gender throughout the play, encouraging students to comment with precision and perception on masculinity and femininity.
Ideal for KS4 students in particular but easily adaptable for other ages.

This is a decent resource- very useful. But why is it in .pdf, and not a .pptx? It's incredibly onerous to have to convert each page into a slide. Had to use small pdf website in the end but it worked.<br /> <br /> Great resource for building into lessons, however.
