Complete set of lessons and resource for the Norman England 2024 Historic Environment. The lessons have been designed around the concept of change: However, these could be easily adapted if you believe the concept will be different. E.g. Q4: ‘The main change brought about the conquest was the increased use of Normans to control areas of land.’ We teach these lessons stand alone before the control section so lessons give a small opportunity to teach the basics on these topics like castles etc. Lesson 1 - Why did Wales present issues for the Normans? Lesson 2 - How did William secure the Welsh border? Lesson 3 - How did the Marcher Earls exploit Wales and challenge William? Lesson 4 - How did the Marcher Earls use castle to subdue the Welsh?

The notes are split between the different rulers which makes it useful for the essay questions as they are asked on the distinct periods, not the period as a whole (for the most part anyway). I’m charging for these notes as they took me a lot of time to complete and as I am also a professional tutor I use them when teaching my students. Enjoy :)
