Key quotes for a variety of important characters in 'Macbeth', on my custom watercolour background. These posters aim to show the development of characters throughout the play, and act as a quick guide for students to refer to when writing and revising.

I taught this lesson as a double, so there is plenty of material in here for a lively discussion about the importance of the themes and characters in 'Blood Brothers'. This lesson focuses on the question: who is responsible for the deaths of Mickey and Eddie? Students are asked to: -Rank characters in order of responsibility, and discuss their opinionS -Evaluate the importance of thematic and contextual factors, including: poverty, class, fate, superstition, nature and nurture. - Consolidate their knowledge on a worksheet and reflect on their final opinion.

This is a creative lesson which gives pupils the opportunity to imagine they are producing their own version of Blood Brothers. From casting, lighting and scenery to story boarding pivotal moments, this was a really enjoyable lesson that helped students to visualise the play. I taught it after we had finished the whole text, and it was very well received by students!

A list of the key events in 'Macbeth', in chronological order. I have also included a mixed up version of the plot which I used with my class for revision in case this is helpful to anyone.
