Level 4: Three Great Plays Of Shakespeare

These are three of Shakespeare's greatest, and most tragic, plays. In each story, the main characters die - cruel Lord Macbeth, unhappy King Lear and the doomed lovers, Romeo and Juliet. They die because they, of others, are weak, greedy or very foolish. But, like real people, they have good qualities and moments of greatness too. Pearson English Active Readers present stories carefully written and graded across five levels for teachers of English who want to activate their students' language through reading. From original stories, classic and contemporary fiction, to film adaptations and nonfiction titles, an integrated skills approach consolidates vocabulary and develops language skills while learners experience the joy of reading.
