Help pupils to learn key quotations for Macbeth with a Macbeth Quote Flashcards quiz: a superb resource for reinforcing essential material from The Scottish Play in preparation for the GCSE English Literature exam.
Each quote on the Flashcards contains a portion missing. Students must fill in the missing quotation or match them to the corresponding card, for example:
“There’s no _____ to find the maid’s construction in the face”
which matches, of course, to
“There’s no art to find the maid’s construction in the face”
An excellent class activity to ensure your students really know the play for their GCSE assessments, these Macbeth Quote Flashcards are a great teaching, assessment or revision tool.
