A lesson aimed at a high ability year 8 class. This looks at whether Louis was to blame for the downfall of the Bourbon monarchy. Students look at the events that faced Louis and how they would react then they find out what Louis himself did and the consequences.
Students throughout should be questioned about why they would make the choices. Then why was Louis choice a mistake or did he have any other options. You should try and push for a balanced picture of Louis as much as possible. Then students should discuss what their verdict of Louis is. Was he stupid, naive or just a disaster of a king?
This lesson comes with challenge tasks and a homework task (though i used this for by less able students in the lesson as well).
This lesson is very much a narrative lesson. Get students to read the information.
