William Shakespeare tragic tale of misplaced ambition, betrayal and murder is brought to life in this dynamic PowerPoint lesson that covers Act 4 Scenes 2 and 3, and Act 5 Scene 1. This lesson has been structured to compliment the GCSE qualification, but I have also made slight adaptions in the past to teach it within the American education system. I have used this specific resource to lead my physical teaching in class, as a distance learning material online/homework assignment and even as a tool of revision – all have worked well for the students. This 24 slide lesson provides approximately 2-3 hours of classroom teaching time and includes a starter activity, summary and analysis questions, a glossary of terms slide, an academic writing task, a theme tracking slide, an extension task, a homework assignment and a plenary All the time-consuming work has been completed for you, no further work is required. This is a complete resource. Enjoy!

William Shakespeare’s tragic love story, ‘Romeo and Juliet’ continues to garner praise in its many varied productions across stage, film and printed media. This enduring love story remains a significant text because of the challenging themes contained within and their striking importance to the post-modern world. This resource was constructed with the British GCSE curriculum in mind, but I have also used it within the American education system (with a few adaptations and changes). I have taught this text many times in the last 20 years and have used this specific resource to lead my teaching in class, as a distance learning material/Google Meet, as a homework assignment and even as a tool of revision – all have worked well for the students. This beautifully illustrated 19 slide PowerPoint lesson contains a starter activity, a glossary of terms, summary and analysis questions, an academic writing task, an extension task, a homework assignment and a plenary. There is no additional work required from the teacher. This is a complete resource, enjoy!
