  1. TWELFTH NIGHT ASSESSMENT

  2. ASSESSMENT THE FOCUS FOR YOUR ASSESSMENT IS GOING TO BE MALVOLIO. TO START WITH, YOU NEED TO HAVE IDEAS ABOUT WHAT HE IS LIKE AND WHAT WE THINK OF HIM. USE THE POINTS ON THE NEXT SLIDES TO HELP ORGANISE YOUR IDEAS.

Assessment • Do you feel Malvolio has been treated badly or does he get what he deserves? • Write a paragraph explaining what he does that causes Sir Toby, Sir Andrew, Maria and Feste to plot against him. Malvolio firstly upsets Feste by… He later annoys Sir Toby and Sir Andrew by… • Now explain how the audience might feel about him. What might make them feel this way?

  8. Evidence included in the second sentence Our first impressions of Malvolio are very bad. He insults Feste in front of Olivia by saying “I marvel that your ladyship takes delight in such a barren rascal.” This makes him seem malicious and rude; the audience feel this is a character they should dislike and mistrust. Perhaps Shakespeare wanted us to hate Malvolio here, so we wouldn’t pity him later but laugh at him instead. How the character seems to us How the audience feel about the character Why you think Shakespeare made this decision

  9. Sentence starters: • Malvolio seems… • Here he comes across as … and … because… • The audience see him as… • Perhaps Shakespeare wants us to…
