MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING teaching materials

This is a whistlestop tour of the play, keeping students focused on key scenes for study that is as lively as this (at times dark) quick-witted comedy. Documents that include a fun, dramatic exploration of the text. Most of the documents include condensed scripts for pupils to work with, as well as writing and drama tasks pupils can complete individually, as a class or in groups for collaborative learning. For revision there's a list of significant lines per Act - pupils can analyse the language or annotate them to show who said the line and when; there's a revision activity document for pupils to complete and there's a copy of a production programme - pupils can use this to add to their notes or to write their own programme, using knowledge of the text at the end of the unit. To ensure pupils are familiar with the mark scheme and to reflect on their own work, there is a sample empathy task and sample passage-based essay for pupils to peer mark.
