Literature Study: The Complete Romeo and Juliet (12×2 hour lessons)

William Shakespeare’s tragic love story, ‘Romeo and Juliet’ continues to garner praise in its many varied productions across stage, film and printed media. This enduring love story remains a significant text because of the challenging themes contained within and their striking importance to the post-modern world. These resources were constructed with the British GCSE curriculum in mind, but I have also used them within the American education system (with a few adaptations and changes). I have taught this text many times in the last 20 years and have used these specific resources to lead my teaching in class, as a distance learning materials/Google Meets, as homework assignments and even as tools of revision – all have worked well for the students.
These beautifully illustrated PowerPoint lessons each contain a starter activity, a glossary of terms, summary and analysis questions, an academic writing task, an extension task, a homework assignment and a plenary. There is no additional work required from the teacher. These are complete resources, enjoy!
