This worksheet supports pupils in exploring Act 3, Scene 2 of Macbeth, set in the palace, where Macbeth and Lady Macbeth reveal growing cracks in their partnership. A range of differentiated questions guides students through comprehension, inference, language analysis and thematic exploration, helping them examine Shakespeare’s presentation of shifting power, emotional strain, and the deepening impact of guilt and ambition. Pupils are encouraged to analyse how Macbeth becomes increasingly secretive and how Lady Macbeth’s influence begins to falter.
Ideal for KS3 lessons, homework or revision, this resource strengthens close‑reading skills and deepens understanding of Shakespeare’s character development, psychological tension, and dramatic structure.
