This lesson focuses on comparing the preparation of Harold Godwinson’s and William of Normandy’s forces before the Battle of Hastings.
Students review why Harold’s army was exhausted and explore how William prepared his troops, using images from the Bayeux Tapestry as evidence.
They practise writing structured PEE (Point, Evidence, Explain) paragraphs on why William was more prepared. Activities include group analysis, peer assessment, and using “challenge phrases” to enhance arguments.
