Designed to accompany the Oxford School Shakespeare texts, this series aims to equip Key Stage 3 pupils with an understanding of each play through active and text-based approaches. Each book is split into three sections: introduction, with notes on active approaches to the play; the play, with scene-by-scene activities on the text; and overview, focusing on plot, characters and themes. All activities encourage an active engagement with the text, leading to both written and spoken/drama work.
