Created for the new AQA GCSE: Lessons pick up after the Battle of Hastings recapping on William’s actions after the Battle. Pupils then look at the motte and bailey castle, strengths and weaknesses and the reasons for the Normans building them. There is some focus on the ‘explain the importance question’, based around castles and then some work looking at Pickering Castle (this wasn’t our focus this year so I just used it as a good example for the pupils).
Lesson is presented in an easy-to-use style and Powerpoint is self-explanatory.
