In this lesson, we will use the plan from the previous lesson to write about Macbeth's character with a main focus on two aspects of his character: at the start of the play when he is depicted as a warrior and later on when he becomes ambitious. During the lesson, the teacher on the video will model how to use the plan and the success criteria to write two paragraphs of the character description.

• Any other grammar skills known.
