What do teachers say about this resource? (8147)

A varied, engaging resource, which would be extremely useful when teaching the text. The suggested answers at the end are real time savers for busy teachers, and many of the worksheets are flexible enough to be set for homework as well as classroom activities... I particularly liked the wide range of activities included as this would not only be engaging for students, but also well adapted to different learning styles. In addition, the activities cover all the necessary aspects of teaching a drama text, e.g. form, structure, stage directions... It allows students to understand each scene [and] covers other important aspects such as characters and contextual issues... The presentation is excellent... There is a wide range of different worksheets which are aesthetically pleasing and this helps to maintain student interest as well as effectively covering different aspects of the topics... It is well matched to the specification and refers to the AOs throughout, which is extremely helpful to both students and teachers... A well-presented and detailed resource, invaluable to any teacher delivering this course.

The glossary is detailed and helpful. There is a wide range of essay questions. The suggested answers are helpful to teachers and students alike. The drama activities allow students to appreciate the text as a play.

L Deighton, HoD & Peer Reviewer

This resource will guide students in their understanding of the text. The variety of tasks will support different learners, and the formatted worksheets will allow students to focus on key symbols, motifs, etc.... There are some good contextual tasks... The scene-by-scene tasks provide a great deal of variety... The after-reading tasks are thorough and comprehensive and I like that they are specific to AOs... The suggested answers at the end are very useful in supporting students and guiding their learning. These will also save teachers valuable time.
