Macbeth quotations, Act 1 Quizlet

The first of five sets of Quizlet flashcards on Macbeth to embed knowledge of quotations. College pupils can also see these on Firefly.

Some basic principles of quotations -

• Quotations are the knowledge-base and evidence-base for all answering.
• Quotations are used to back up a point.
• Options: organise by scene / character / theme. Many quotations will have multiple uses.
• ‘Tag’ quotations with a system. Make connections.
• Re-reading quotations (and notes) is a bad learning strategy.
• Use flashcards / Quizlet / a questioning partner.
• Write down what you know. What gaps?
• Go back again and again over spaced time: embed them so you can retrieve automatically.
• Little and often. Keep going, especially while you’ve finished the play.
