Causes of poverty in Tudor times

This is a card sort for GCSE History.
Pupils look at the reasons that there was poverty in Tudor times. They need to know the key words at the start of the presentation. They have a number of tasks which they can be invited to complete, to sort which were:
1. Long-term causes / Short-term causes

2. To do with money
To do with foreign wars or trade
To do with natural factors (poor harvests, disease)
To do with other things

3. Most important 1-2
Quite important 4-5
Less important 4-5
Least important 1-2

Students can then explain why they have given the level of importance to some of the reasons. This can lead to debate or an exam Q.
