This lesson contains:
- A starter which is useful if you have taught Motte and Bailey castles, and recaps their appearance to start the lesson.
- A task for students to stick in a picture of a castle and label what is different between this and the old Motte and Bailey (i.e. stone walls etc.) and there is a slide to go over the major changes and definitions.
- An on-board run through of the evolution of castles with examples from Cardiff Castle and Framlingham Castle. Students consider the advantages and disadvantages of these new castles. Beaumaris Castle is used to explain the idea of concentric castles.
- Students use a card sort to match up the castle design feature with the name and explanation.
- Students finish by studying five castles and identify their features from the previous activity. They determine which castles they would use for different purposes.
- A plenary quiz with differentiated levels.
