What do teachers say about this resource? (3453)

Outstanding, user-friendly, detailed and informative but very easy to follow. Could be used by students working on their own or as part of class lessons. Well set out, with interesting and informative illustrations. Students would enjoy working through the many varied, interesting and challenging tasks... It sets tasks which would generate interest and enthusiasm and does so in a way which seems very simple and straightforward but is in fact deceptively challenging and thorough... An impressive, detailed, thorough unit I would be more than happy to use. It represents countless hours of reading and preparation which any teacher would appreciate.

Excellent. It helped us to write a scheme of work for the play and to extend those who needed it easily... Made our lives easier and the students' understanding better... A real time saver and grade improver

I thought it was excellent. It is a sound, complete resource that covers all aspects of the play in depth... I particularly like the way the resource is broken down into small, manageable sections... The presentation is great... I have been able to use the activities in a variety of ways, with very little work on my part...
