Schemes of work

Exploration of Shakespeare

KS 2 Shakespeare
The aim of this scheme of work is to give students an introduction to Shakespeare and the opportunity to experience a range of his plays. In each lesson they will look at the plot lines and explore a little of the text.
Two of the lessons include stage fighting. It will be up to the teacher's discretion whether or not they feel that this is appropriate for their class. Detailed instructions have been included for these lessons.
The scheme ends with an assessment that allows students to show what they have learnt by choosing one of the plays they have explored and staging it in more detail. For the assessment you may want to have a synopsis of each play and key extracts from the script.
