Historical context
Students put historical events into order then think about how these events would have affected the play. There's an interactive Sequencing task for an alternative to a card sort.

Excellent resource. Not enough students refer to the social context when discussing the play.

Set this as homework for a higher ability group- also good to test how much they can research independently and relate to the play.

Used this resource with 3 different level groups, they all enjoyed finding out about what happened on the event that interested them. Very useful in terms of building their idea of the social historical context. After independent research, saw very detailed responses including how the audience at the time might have felt based on events surrounding the play.
