Model

Using the text below, can you determine whether the statement is true or false and support this answer with evidence from the text. This is how your task will be set out. 

As you read through the text, is there any clues or vocabulary which tell you Banquo is a smart man? If not, can you find evidence to support the fact he isn't a smart man?

Read pages 45-47. These are the pages you are going to be using when completing your task, so it is important to understand what happens at this point in the story.

Task

You have to determine whether the statements (points) you have been provided with are true or false. Then support your answer with evidence from the text and write this in the 'why?' box, as shown below.
