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. This resource was constructed with the British GCSE curriculum in mind, but I have also used it 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 this specific resource to lead my teaching in class, as a distance learning material/Google Meet, as a homework assignment and even as a tool of revision – all have worked well for the students.
This colossal 27 slide PowerPoint lesson contains a starter activity, an author biography, structured questions connected to the prevalent themes and leading characters, an extension task, and homework assignment and a plenary. There is no further work required from the teacher. This is a complete resource, enjoy!
