These outstanding resources have been tried tested over twenty six years and have never failed to inspire and engage the fully ability range. Since we first uploaded this lesson in 2000, it has been the most popular downloads of all time and has been copied and adapted by schools all over the world. With the help of the team at the History Academy, we have updated and improved the lesson as you can see from the preview panel.
When you purchase this resource you will be able to download a PowerPoint Presentation which includes starters, plenaries, information slides links to video clips, and seven activities to complete with your students. This resource can be fully customised and at several points you can chose alternative activities that may be relevant to the ability of your students. You will also be able to download a card sort and tailor made video for this lesson. Please see the preview panel.
The card sort - Henry VIII''s problems includes four headings under which the students can sort the rest of the cards. These are power, religion, money and personal. The rest of the resource then includes 14 cards which can be matched to them. Once the cards have been sorted, the students should then be able to move onto the review triangle activity. This is best done in pairs or groups, with one person from each group feeding back their results onto the IWB and explaining their choice.
In a nut shell, students complete the snowballing starter, watch the video, make some notes and then have the choice of completing the card sort, colour coding a printed off version of Henry VIII's problems or creating their own summary. They can then have a go at deciding which problems were the most significant before having a go at doing a prediction exercise where they write a speech outlining how they would solve Henry VIII's problems. This is followed with some information slides and an extended writing exercise with support slides where the students explain why Henry VIII broke with Rome. Finally, there this is consolidated with a heads and tails activity were they match how Henry VIII solved each problem identified earlier.
The aims and objectives are:
Theme: Why did Henry VIII break from Rome?
Know: What problems faced Henry VIII in 1525?
Understand: Which problems were connected to money, religion, power and a legitimate heir?
Evaluate: Why did Henry VIII decide to break with Rome?
