Clear and varied presentation which engages the students and gives them clear facts and points on the playwright's life. The objectives are to give rhe students a historical overview, trigger questions from them, and to test them on on key facts at the end. It establishes a knowledge base for them.The slide with Elizabeth I's Armada portrait is very helpful as there are many images on the pairing that the students can talk about. Ask them: how is the painter of this picture portraying Elizabeth as a powerful queen? Expect lots of varied answers.
The presentation is a good differentiator and triggers great classroom discussions whilst enabling the students to have a better grasp of Shakespeare's own life and contextual background. Ideal for any secondary age. I've used it at KS3, GCSE, IGCSE and A level. Bargain!

The monster-sized Richard III bundle!
This bundle has a lot of material to help you get your students enthused about Shakespeare's best known villain. It contains three PowerPoints which introduce and contextualise the history of Richard III, explore his use of language, introduce new linguistic techniques and finally leads students up to writing a full essay on his use of language to control others. Also included in the bundle is a great introduction to Shakespeare slideshow which, ideally, starts off the topic, and a handy guide to Shakespearean grammar. Finally, I include the worksheet for a Shakespearean insults tournament, which the kids love as Richard has so many opponents they can script for.
