Shakespeare Heroes and Villains SOW

An introduction aimed at Year 9 students (high ability) to Shakespeare. I was asked to write a scheme of work to avoid the gap we had between students studying Shakespeare in Year 8 and then never again until Year 11. This unit encompasses extracts from: Macbeth, Romeo and Juliet, Much Ado About Nothing and the Merchant of Venice. The final assessment is based on an extract from Titus and Andronicus. The question is also based on Question Four of Paper One of the English Language GCSE (AQA). There is a mix of questions aimed also at Question Five of Paper Two AQA GCSE and the Literature exam. I haven’t put the introductory lesson on here as I actually adapted it from someone else’s resource on the TES. Please contact if you would like a link to that resource. Have fun!
