KS3 English Year 9: Romeo and Juliet: Tragedy and Fate is a step-by-step online learn guide for Key Stage 3 pupils in Years 7 to 9. It covers tragedy and the Prologue: a story already told, act 1 Scene 1: violence and the feud, act 1 Scene 5: the shared sonnet, act 2 Scene 2: the balcony scene and light imagery, act 3 Scene 1: Mercutio's death and the turning point, act 3 Scene 5: Capulet, patriarchy and Juliet's isolation and act 5 Scene 3: the tragic ending and who is to blame, then brings it all together with mixed retrieval and unit challenge.
There are 23 short steps of about 15 minutes (roughly 6 hours of learning), each made of bite-size explanations with key words, tables and examples, and every bite-size is followed by an activity you check straight away. Key terms include Tragedy, Fate, Feud, Pun, Shared sonnet, Quatrain, Imagery, Metaphor, Turning point, Mercutio, Patriarchy and Decree.
