I am an English teacher working in Ireland. I have corrected exam papers and love to create colourful, easy to follow resources for teachers and students alike. Everything I upload I have used in my own lessons so I know they will work for you too.

Higher Level Leaving Cert booklet which summarises the main themes, images, and symbols in King Lear. Also: breakdown of the marking scheme (PCLM), a study checklist, and all previous questions organised by theme, character, and general questions from previous Leaving Cert Papers.
This can - and has been - used as study and revision tool, or as an aid in the classroom for discussion, and clarification of, these issues in the play. Used in PowerPoint so you can edit, change, and use with the class as required.
This really helped my lot come to terms with the questions and helped them gain a deeper understanding of the play.
Hope it helps you too!

An Escape Room-type challenge with “rooms” of questions to be used as revision for the plot of Romeo and Juliet. Students play the role of Fate and must ensure the events laid out in the Prologue come to pass. Instructions for teachers are clearly laid out in the first few pages of the pack.
Students can work individually or as teams to answer questions, organise key events into chronological order, make choices about which direction to take when characters are faced with a choice, and provide evidence of their understanding.
I have played this with some middle ability students and it has gone down a treat! I hope it helps your students engage with revision a little more too.
