An engaging, super clear 56 slide powerpoint which takes a class through the theme of power in ‘Macbeth’ using key quotations which are then used to tackle an exploding extract question.

There are plenty of opportunities for short, focused activities by the students with slides giving answers for all activities. The lesson finishes with an exam question and guided activities to help students plan and then write their answers.

A full model answer is also included.

The lesson works best as revision. It takes between 1 and 2 hours, depending on how much writing the students complete.

This is suitable for the AQA and OCR exam boards but can easily be adapted for other exam boards.
