William Shakespeare tragic tale of misplaced ambition, betrayal and murder is brought to life in this dynamic PowerPoint lesson that covers Act 5 Scenes 5, 6 and 7. 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 18 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!
