This fun and interactive lesson has been designed to enhance students’ understanding of Tudor society by getting them to critically evaluate how far entertainment was linked to wealth and social status through a dynamic market place activity. Students can delve into this investigation in groups or independently by utilising information slides strategically placed around the classroom. By moving around the room, students can complete a tailored summary sheet designed specifically for this lesson, fostering a hands-on and immersive learning experience.
The topics covered in this lesson include theatre, dance, football, tournaments, games, bull and bear-baiting, cock-fighting, hunting, hawking, ball games, markets and fairs. We have included various support activities and tasks to cater to different learning needs. If you prefer to simplify or shorten the lesson, you can omit some of the slides.
When I have completed this lesson with my own classes, we have consolidated the learning with the continuum task, but we have included a fully supported extended writing task in the additional resource section along with a missing word activity, word search and a source analysis activity.
When you purchase this lesson you will be able to download a beautifully illustrated PowerPoint presentation with 39 slides. This include aims, objectives, differentiated outcomes, starters, plenaries, information slides, historical sources, templates, writing frames, missing word activities, heads and tails, word search, source analysis, and extended writing tasks. In short everything you would need to fully customise this lesson for your students.
