Flashcards with key quotations on from the play. <br /> Teaching Notes <br /> • It is best to do this as revision once the pupils have read and understood the play well.

Once pupils have completed their flash cards, have them analyse the quotations on their cards.<br /> • Once pupils have completed a flash card activity, they could arrange the cards into categories to explore the different themes of the play. What do the quotations reveal about the theme?<br /> • You could easily make this into a loop-cards activity.<br /> • You could make the flashcards A4 sized and do this as a whole class activity where you flip the cards over like in higher/lower and they can carry on only if they get the answer right.
