3 pages of quiz cards for Romeo and Juliet to use as part of revision with answers. Each question has a quotation and requires students to: 1. identify who said it 2. identify a technique used by Shakespeare 3. Answer a deeper question relating to the effect of the technique When printed off and photocopied back to back each card will have the answer on the reverse. I use these in folders (as shown in the image attached) and students spend the first 5-10 mins of certain lessons revising silently. Every correctly answered question moves a step back in the folder. Any question answered incorrectly moves back to the front. This is known as the Leitner method for retaining knowledge as part of regular testing.
