What do teachers say about this resource? (8610)

Very useful in helping students to grasp key concepts of the play. My students have enjoyed using the templates during the lesson and at home for revision... It is well designed and laid out... The sections are broken down very clearly... Quick and easy to use.

A great way to explore the play’s narrative themes, context and character. A range of activities that relate to the events of the play. Many options for each section of text. Particularly [useful] for homework when reinforcing material learnt in class

S Trustman, HoD & Customer

This resource is exactly what I was hoping for. The sheets are really well laid out and student friendly. [...] I particularly liked the A3 design, which could work a little like a literacy mat in class. I think it poses useful thinking activities and a high level of challenge. [...] I think this resource will be very useful in the latter stages of revising. A student could have a pack of these resources as independent revision materials, and they will support with the 'cramming' aspect of revision nearer the time. Alternatively they will support in consolidating the ideas after a first read
