King John - Early Life (2/7 Wolsey Academy)

(0)
King John – from his troublesome fighting with his brother (Lionheart) to his troublesome time as King ending in Magna Carta and the Baron’s War. This SOW focusses on John’s policies both foreign and domestic and the consequences they had for his people. Works well as a stand alone SOW but is also integrated into the free to play History game world at WA (check it out if you haven’t already!) Each lesson contains a quick start guide, literacy & numeracy starter, teacher narrative context pages (chance for you to do some storytelling !) plenaries, a range of active learning episodes and a focus on writing skills. Homework, EAL and stretch activity sheets. The 7 lessons, along with the main lesson activities, are as follows: Richard I, Crusades & John (Plantagenet map relay, round robin Crusader battle reports, reading comprehension tasks, consult the codex activity). John’s Early Life (John v Longchamp card sort/PEEKA paragraph practice and assessment/consult the codex activity) John & Taxes (‘Be the teacher’ activity/essay construction practice/consult the codex activity) John & War (Army recruiter role play presentations & Bouvines video) Magna Carta (Baron grievances card sort/prioritisation tasks/PEEKA writing development) The Baron’s War (Round the Room battle reporting/descriptive writing task/videos) End of Unit Assessment (Planning and prep for a Narrative Analysis, Edexcel style Q on John’s legacy). Hope it helps. Remember – works best when the students are playing the (free!) King John game and completing the codex at the same time (perfect ongoing homework task or ict room lesson).

THIS IS THE CODEX TO GO WITH THE BECKET HISTORY GAME AT WWW.WOLSEYACADEMY.COM WHICH SYNCS IN WITH THE BECKET SOW – SEE BELOW: Henry II & Becket. A mini 3 lesson SOW looking at the church, Henry II and Becket’s murder. The module excellently introduces the idea of church v crown and provides the contextual knowledge needed for later study of the English reformation and other ‘power’ issues the English monarchy faces. Works well as a stand alone SOW but is also integrated into the free to play History game world at Wolsey Academy (check it out if you haven’t already!) Each lesson contains a literacy & numeracy starter, teacher narrative context pages (chance for you to do some storytelling !) plenaries and a range of active learning episodes. EAL and literacy support mats included with each lesson. The 3 lessons, along with the main lesson activities, are as follows: Church & Crown (graphic based church mind map discussions/source question/leaflet productions/Consult the Codex) Henry II (Timeline questions/round room source activity/Henry poster activity/Consult the Codex) Becket (chronology card sort/consult the codex/descriptive writing activity/cartoon strips) Hope it helps. Remember – works best when the students are playing the (free!) Becket game and completing the codex at the same time (perfect ongoing homework task or ict room lesson).
