Not Born of Woman


Description

In this lesson, students read and analyze Macbeth, Act 5.7 and 5.8, in which Macbeth engages in battle with Malcolm and his thanes and is defeated and killed by Macduff, who, Macbeth learns, was not born of woman but was born prematurely by cesarean section. Students explore the elements of tragedy and analyze Macbeth as an example of the genre through a jigsaw discussion. Students also work in groups to rehearse their interpretive dramatic reading performance for 10.4.2 Lesson 20.
