This engaging and interactive lesson is designed to deepen students’ understanding of Tudor society by critically evaluating the connections between sports, wealth, and social status through a dynamic marketplace activity. Students can explore this investigation collaboratively in groups or independently, utilizing strategically placed information slides around the classroom. As they move around the room, they will complete a tailored summary sheet specifically crafted for this lesson, promoting a hands-on and immersive learning experience.
The lesson covers a variety of Tudor sports, including:
* Archery
* Football
* Tournaments
* Wrestling
* Bull and Bear-Baiting
* Cock-Fighting
* Hunting
* Hawking
* Bowls
* Skittles
* Tennis
To accommodate diverse learning needs, we have included various support activities and tasks. If you wish to simplify or shorten the lesson, you can easily omit certain slides without losing the overall effectiveness of the lesson.
Upon completing this lesson with my own classes, we have successfully consolidated learning through a continuum task. Additionally, we provide a fully supported extended writing task in the resource section, along with writing frames, a missing word activity and a word search, ensuring that all students can engage meaningfully with the material.
