Year 9 Macbeth Scheme of Work - Lesson 12

(20)
This is a scheme of work mainly aimed at Year 9 pupils studying Macbeth. The unit will end in a reading assessment on the question: How does Shakespeare present the causes and consequences of greed in the play Macbeth? This could also be adapted for KS4 classes. A lesson plan is included with each lesson so you can understand my thought process. Macbeth is possibly my favourite Shakespeare play, so I hope I have done it justice!

Writing a Summary Lessons

(33)
This is a set of three lessons that I have made to help students improve their skills in writing summaries. It is a combination of individual and group work. This was made for Year 9 as an introduction to GCSE English, but could work well for a lower ability KS4 class. I have tried to make a somewhat 'dry&' topic as entertaining as possible! A lesson plan features as the last slide on each PowerPoint.
