Macbeth by William Shakespeare

Picture
The perfect introduction to Shakespeare. Ghosts, witches, battles and murder. You just need to add some dinosaurs and a unicorn and it could have been written for a class of ten-year-olds.*

Note about this planning: All of our Shakespeare and More English units are built around key objectives from the 2014 English National Curriculum for children aged 9-11. Whatever the curriculum you follow, we hope you'll find them useful. 

*Don't add some dinosaurs and a unicorn- it's perfect as it is.

Shakespeare and More Macbeth Unit- The Complete Works
Everything you need to teach Macbeth- all the extracts, frames and other bits and pieces.

To teach this unit, you might need:
Shakespeare Stories by Leon Garfield
Has a great version of Macbeth, beautifully written with all dialogue taken from Shakespeare's original text. If you are going to teach Shakespeare in primary school, you need this book!
Shakespeare: The Animated Tales (Macbeth)
Really useful for teaching Shakespeare to primary classes. Or you can just use YouTube.
Stories from Shakespeare by Geraldine McCaughrean
Another beautiful version of Shakespeare's tales.
