Information about the Assessment Objectives
This is an engaging mini scheme of work on Shakespeare’s “Macbeth.” This resource includes a completely original, aesthetically themed PowerPoint divided into 4 lessons, each featuring tailored lesson objectives, starter activities, main tasks, and plenaries. However, this can easily be spread into 8 lessons or so; I just happened to have split it into 4 as it was taught with a top set class who had already done some preparation lessons prior to this. The main idea is to decide, through prepared debate, whether Macbeth is to blame for his actions or whether someone else has more responsibility (for instance Lady Macbeth).
The Lessons:
Lesson 1: Bloody Betrayals Beginning (introduction to SoW and assigning roles)
Lesson 2: Dagger of the Mind’s Evidence (collating evidence)
Lesson 3: Witches’ Whispers: Witness Warfare (speaking to witnesses)
Lesson 4: Tomorrow & Tomorrow’s Verdict (final trial & reflections)
Additionally, you’ll receive separate Word documents for a Macbeth psychology report and a Witness Credibility chart, enabling in-depth character analysis and critical thinking. Perfect for bringing the courtroom drama of “Macbeth” to life, this resource is ideal for fostering student engagement and understanding of complex themes.
The ultimate guide to key quotes of Macbeth! This comprehensive resource features 25 engaging slides that meticulously organise quotes by key themes, characters, and relationships. Each quote is paired with an original analysis, providing insightful context and fostering deeper understanding. Perfect for educators and students alike, this guide helps enhance critical thinking and literary appreciation. Whether used for lesson planning or student revision, this resource is designed to inspire and elevate discussions around one of literature’s most enduring works.
