KS3 Medieval - How Did Magna Carta affect Johns Power?

This lesson contains:

• A ‘do now’ starter which can be edited to fit whatever you taught previously.
• A recap of John’s situation with the barons and introduction to the Magna Carta.
• A task to study the provisions of Magna Carta against the grievances of the barons and make a judgement as to whether it dealt with John adequately.
• A video which reinforces the impact of Magna Carta on future kings.
• Optional (if time) reading on the Barons War.
• A final task to weigh up the impact of Magna Carta. Students study the information and pick out the facts which help them make assertions about the short- and long-term consequences.
