A simple slide deck with a series of quotations from the AQA Power and Conflict poems. Words are missing from each, so the idea is that students identify them and then discuss the significance of the quotations themselves https://t.co/2FTwPm2xdS π₯

@Mathew_Lynch44 @SecondaryEng I think we often misinterpret the character of Lady Macbeth. Majorie Garber and Prof Diane Purkiss have interesting critical essays. Wives of thanes often fought alongside their husbands and have to take in their role if the thane was away.
