This outstanding resource is designed to get students decide what the most significant causes of poverty in Tudor England. It is suitable for the full ability range and is a fun and interactive resource with which to engage your students. It can be used as a starter, plenary or homework activity and should work alongside any main stream resource on this topic. However, the best book for this is the classic SHP textbook Socities in Change.
When you purchase this resource you will be able to download a two page Microsoft Word Document, which contains instructions, a learning objectives, two activities, two heading cards labeled cause and consequence and eighteen information cards to be cut out and sorted underneath them. In terms of differentiation, time and photocopying costs, both pages are self contained in terms of the matching cards so if you only wanted to use the first page as it includes the causes of poverty in Tudor England, then it would work perfectly well on its own. The second task is to write an extended answer. I have provided some possible writing prompts on the second page which can be used to support weaker students.
The main task involves matching the cause of poverty with its correct consequence. I have highlighted words to create links that students should be able to pick up on as they go along.
The aims and objectives are:
Theme: Tudor England
Know: What were the causes and consequences of poverty in Tudor England?
Understand: What were the consequences of religious, social and economic changes taking place?
Evaluate: What were the main causes of poverty in Tudor England?
WILF - What Am I Looking For?
Identify and describe: The causes of poverty in Tudor England and their consequences?
Explain: What were the consequences of the religious, social and economic changes that were taking place at this time?
Analyse: Begin to make a judgement on what were the main causes of poverty during the Tudor period?
This resource should appeal to a range of abilities and learning styles. It shouldn’t take more than 20 minutes for a middle ability class to cut out the cards and sort them.
