This resource breaks down each scene into a manageable table and condenses the action from the play into 39 pages (prints as a double-sided 20-page booklet). Each Act can be printed individually if required. All of the 29 scenes are broken down. Includes ‘Character List’ and facts relating to the history behind ‘The Scottish Play’ and The Clan System of Scotland + Details of how student can identify: Soliloquy, Personification, Imagery, Metaphor, Allegory, Foreshadowing, Dramatic Irony.

The resource contains spaces all the way through to allow for total student 'interaction', i.e. for their hands-on involvement.

NUTRITION PROJECT: Since childhood you have consumed foods that were initially prepared for you. Now that you are developing, you are becoming responsible for making your own choices. These ‘nutrition-options’ will be carried in to adulthood, where a whole range of diseases and disorders await you, each one of these with direct and scientifically-proven links to your diet. By enhancing your awareness of certain foods and gaining an understanding as to how these items are created, marketed and make their way in to your fridge, your cupboards and on to your plate, you can improve your chances of reducing and even eradicating certain ailments associated with the consumption of the ‘wrong’ types of foods. This project will put YOU in the driving seat. Your destination, is an improved sense of well being.

The resource is a multi-page Excel-spread sheet, stemming from what we currently regard as the birth of the Universe, through each stage of the evolution of the picture we regard as the natural world, through to educated-views of where our human desire to exhaust all natural resources may lead us and the co-inhabitants of Earth. The document was originally compiled as a War-Chart, to highlight the varying stages of man's inhumanity to man, but the research led to documenting everything from archaeological discoveries resulting in greater knowledge of human development, to detailed information relating to prehistoric-earth; world leadership through the ages and facts relating to the resources that have allowed the human species to develop in the way they have.
