An interesting group activity on the options available to Elizabeth when dealing with the threat of her cousin, Mary, Queen of Scots. (Enough for 2 lessons). Each group (ideally no more than 3 pupils) are allocated 2 Thinking Hats (slide 4-5) and have to approach the issue of how to deal effectively with Mary (firstly in 1567). The coloured hats give each pupil a specific role within the group. All required printable sheets are found within the ppt (e.g. slide 8 is the colourless version of the group sheet, but keep the coloured version projected to guide them and slides 4-5 have the Thinking Hats and need cutting up for the pupils etc.) The ppt will then ask pupils to consider what Elizabeth should do in 1587 one Mary's involvement in the Babbington Plot was uncovered (slides 10-14). The last slide will give pupils the opportunity to give their opinion (based on their conclusion to slide 14).

The powerpoint/task is self explanatory, and has proven successful in getting pupils to consider how values have changed since 1916. One slide referring to the 11 statues provides an opportunity for a lively debate on whether or not they think they should still be regarded as heroes, and if not, who they'd replace them with!
