The teacher will provide information about the teacher signal and model what the signal is. The teacher
will provide a description of the general outline of the days knowledge to be learned. The teacher will
also include lecture notes for students to record and use to help develop the theme. The teacher will
provide those notes on a power point for students to visually see while also verbally providing the
information. For students who need additional accommodations the teacher will be providing guided
notes to assist students who need help with note taking. The teacher will have the students work in
pairs to highlight important lines from the text that relate to Macbeth taking fate into his own hands. The
class will also develop a word bank to assist students in the activity. Additionally, the instructor will
check for student understanding. If students are unclear about any information the instructor will

Student Will:
The Teacher will: Have the students break out

into their groups. The teacher will have students
number out by fives, and the students with the
same number will form a group. The teacher will
provide instructions and a potion worksheet for
the students to fill out. The teacher will walk
around the classroom to make sure students
are on task or need assistance.
The teacher will also have the students reflect
on possible consequences of their potion in a
group discussion.
The Students will: complete a potion with their

group. Each member must contribute two lines to the
potion, but may use the class word bank for help and
inspiration.
Students will discuss in their groups of possible
consequences of their potion.
Students will participate in a class discussion on
what was discussed in each group.
Co-Teaching Strategy/ Differentiation Strategy- The teacher will provide verbal instructions, but also
display them on a PowerPoint slide for students who need visual assistance. The teacher will have the
students work in groups so they may assist each other with ideas or writing if necessary. Groups will
be given ten minutes to complete the activity. However, more time will be given if students show a need
for more time. Groups may also use the class word bank if they need help or inspiration. Only one
student who feels comfortable speaking will have to present their group discussion to the class.
Additionally, the teacher will walk around and assist any group that needs help.
Closing/Student Reflection/Real-life connections:
Ticket out- In your notebook write a 4-5 sentence paragraph on what the overall theme of Macbeth is
concerning fate. Draw upon your answers from the Macbeth sequence of events chart, group activity, and
class/group discussions.
