GCSE Elizabeth L3 - Elizabeth's Government & Ministers

This lesson contains:

• A starter quiz to recap previous knowledge. You can customise this to suit your needs.
• Background into the decision to choose good advisors and who the Privy Council were. The slides are pretty straightforward and as you explain, there are questions that students can do from the board to show their understanding.
• A task to study the roles of the various branches of government and draw a small symbol to remember their main role.
• An on-board activity where you can use the answer key provided to talk through the structure of the government. This will be done on their worksheets provided and looks good once they are finished.
• A worksheet that takes students through Elizabeth’s decisions in choosing her Privy Council. Students find the clever choices she made and why, as well as answer some questions about the merits of William Cecil.
• A chance to practice an exam-style question easily done by looking back at the table and structure they completed.
