This fun and interactive lesson is thoughtfully crafted to deepen students’ understanding of the conflict between Henry II and Thomas Becket in 1164. Building upon our previous exploration of Henry II’s character, this lesson delves into the conflict between the Church and the State, setting the stage for Magna Carta and the evolution of these relationships culminating in the era of Henry VIII. The quarrel is divided up into two stages and the extended answer is fully supported with missing word activities and PEEL writing frames.
The consolidation task offers students a dynamic learning experience through three color-coded columns, each presenting a range of tasks tailored to provide choice and appropriate challenge and differentiation. These tasks include a word search, inventive storyboarding, interactive heads and tails game, thought-provoking continuum task, card sorting activity, timeline construction, and a reflective concluding paragraph for their extended essay. This multifaceted approach, aims to foster critical thinking, creativity and a deeper understanding of the key events.
When you download this lesson you will be able to access a thirty nine slide PowerPoint, a four page worksheet and a single page card sort. The PowerPoint contains aims, objectives, differentiated outcomes, tasks, activities, templates, information slides, historical sources and writing frames. The worksheet mirrors the PowerPoint.
