Variety of resources for Woman in Black - will be added to as I work through it.

Three PowerPoints for teaching these poems. True or false Word document included for Percy Shelley.

A unit of work designed for Year 8 pupils to give them information about the play, focusing on the key scenes needed (others are summarised or skipped for time-related reasons or brevity). It includes extracts to annotate with the pupils - some are pre-annotated on the PP slides, others require you to annotate with the pupils (through questioning to get them thinking, rather than just copying down the answers). I used the Patrick Stewart version of Macbeth to supplement, such as viewing Banquo’s murder instead of reading through it. As such many of the character images include scenes from that version of the film - can be easily changed fi you are using a different version. You will need a copy of the play for such moments. NB: this SOW only focuses on key scenes to provide an overview of the play and an understanding of a few of the key themes, mainly the supernatural which is the key assessment. The assessment at the end is also not extract-based, although it would be very easy to add an extract in.

A short SOW focusing on the ballad form. Aimed at Year 7 pupils but can be adapted for older years. Ballads covered include: The Sad Story of Lefty and Ned The Ballad of Hillsborough The Lady of Shalott The Ballad of Charlotte Dymond Rabbit in Mixer Survives (extra lesson included on this - optional)

A lesson (potential for two depending on ability) that focuses on explaining issues regarding mental health, particularly: depression, OCD, Schizophrenia, and anxiety. You can use a real bottle of Coke for the “bottling up” activity. Lots of discussion and mind-map activites, paper and pens will be needed.

A unit of work designed for Year 8 pupils to give them information about the play, focusing on the key scenes needed (others are summarised). It includes extracts to annotate with the pupils through questioning to get them thinking, rather than just copying down the answers. There are handouts with the relevant sections of the scenes - do be aware that the version of the play on the handouts has been cut and made shorter so that the basics of the play and language can be analysed within a short unit. NB: this SOW only focuses on key scenes to provide an overview of the play and an understanding of a few of the key themes, mainly relationships which is the key assessment. The assessment at the end is extract-based and linked to the work in the previous lessons. THIS IS NOT THE WHOLE PLAY BUT RATHER THE BASIC SCENES AND SECTIONS NEEDED FOR UNDERSTANDING.
