A KS1 history lesson which teaches children about the aftermath/effects of the Great Fire of London and what changed after the Fire. Within this lesson children will recap how the Fire started on Pudding Lane and the subsequent events that took the Fire through London. Afterwards, children will learn about what happened after the Fire.
This resource is a powerpoint presentation and asks the children to act like King Charles II in understanding what changes had to be made to London. These links are made through explicit recapping of prior knowledge of London during this period so children have a coherent view on what changed and why. As well as the presentation there is a set of printable cards which children can sort into before the fire and after the fire.
How I use this resource: This resource is a powerpoint which is shared at the front of the class with the children. The cards activity can be done in small groups or whole class.
