In this lesson, students will learn about Henry VIII’s ‘Dissolution of the Monasteries’ in 1536. They will be able to explain the reasons why Henry VIII dissolved the monasteries and use a variety of sources to investigate the greed, corruption and poor behaviour that existed in the monasteries by the early 1500s. Students will then write a letter to Henry VIII outlining and analysing their findings about the monasteries.
