Click on the link above to access a booklet that contains retrieval and review tasks for *Macbeth*.  All five acts and most scenes are covered.  There’s a mixture of stuff for students to tackle, all of which should be easy to adapt:

- Quotation retrieval
- Fill in the gaps
- Identify the character
- Explain a reference
- Explain in fifty words
- Explain the connotations
- Explain the context
- Summarise what happens
- Define the word
