Revision game in which students work their way through key locations from the play to escape Macbeth. In order to progress from one location to the next, students must complete a quote card (these can be ordered in any way you wish, i.e, at random, in terms of difficulty, chronologically, etc). Once all quote cards are complete and the student/s have reached the crown, prizes can be given and cards can be collated into revision notes. I print mine as A5 cards that are then strung together to create flashcards for revision. Alternatively, they can be turned into posters, booklets, folders, etc. Download includes a PowerPoint with the instructions and game board and a separate document with the quote cards. These can also be downloaded separately in my TES shop and used as worksheets if desired!

A collection of 20 key quote worksheets from Macbeth that can be used as singular tasks or issued as a booklet.

I used them in conjunction with the Macbeth Quote Quest Revision Game (printed on A5 cards which were then fastened together as flashcards). They’d also be great plenaries or starters! Note: *This resource is also included in the ‘Macbeth Quote Quest Revision Game’ also in my TES Shop! *

Recommendations: For Key Stage 4, this could be adapted to suit transactional writing with a greater focus on letter writing. I have also run this as a competition in form time to win an Easter Egg which proved to be very popular!

I used to have the original links to the full articles in this description but unfortunately they have now been removed due to new guidelines.
