A self-contained worksheet-type resource for exploring King Duncan and the qualities of a good king in Act 1, Scene 2 of Macbeth. The resource includes the script, interesting contextual information, basic comprehension questions, some analytical questions and a short creative task. This would be a perfect as part of an introduction to the play, a cover lesson or a homework task. It could also be used as a revision resource. Teacher notes are also included.

I wrote this fun panto for anywhere between 14 and 30 students. The roles of the Narrators and Ladies can be shared between many or assigned to a few people. It lasts approximately 1 hour. There is plenty of scope to add songs etc where you wish. I do not have a dame as such as I do not feel they are appropriate for younger people, but I feel the role of Stepmother and Fairygodbrother serves this purpose (as both can be played by boys). Enjoy!
