L5 in the 2024 Historic Environment series on The Americas and Drake’s circumnavigation, 1577-1580.
This lesson assesses how great an achievement Drake’s circumnavigation was. The lesson begins by using the images to recap the previous lesson - the results of the circumnavigation. Students then explore the benefits and negatives/limitations of the voyage for those stakeholders involved (e.g. Drake, his backers, his crew etc). Students then use this sheet, and the previous lesson to explore ONE of two questions assessing the achievements and successes of the voyages. In groups students plan a question and then feedback, completing the question planning grid. Students then choose one question to answer (linked to AQA updated scheme 2024). The lesson culminates in a judgement line plenary assessing how successful students consider Drake’s voyage to have been.
