An idea I adapted from a colleague during my training year. Students come up with their own scores for each medieval weapon and then play the various games. Rules also part of document. Any comments welcome.

How did religion change (Henry VIII - Mary I)?

(1)
This lesson is suited to pupils who have covered the changes in religion under Henry VIII and Edward VI previously. An excellent way to develop pupils' critical thinking skills. Starter: Pupils complete the table on PPT slide 3 (I usually print the table out for pupils). Main: Pupils are split into groups and given a copy each of the Robert the Preist mystery sheet. They must use the sheet to decide what Robert decided to do once Mary became Queen. They will present their findings to the rest of the class. Plenary: True / False activity.

PowerPoint and worksheet I created to help pupils understand the debate that surrounds the death of the princes. You will need to find some sources that show different sides to the story (I am unable to upload the sheet I used onto this site).
