The Norman Conquest

This lesson explores the role of monks and nuns in Medieval society and questions their importance.

Students learn how people joined the monastic community and how they helped the local community.

Students also analyse their dress code and the reasons behind it, before engaging in literacy tasks such as linking their daily life to particularly headings and writing a narrative account.

There are accompanying worksheets and video links to reinforce the learning.

The plenary of ‘find and fix’ challenges the students to rewrite and correct a number of statements made.

The lesson is enquiry based with a key question using a lightbulb posed at the start of the lesson and revisited at the end using a rate ‘o’ meter to show the progress of learning.

The resource is differentiated and gives suggested teaching strategies.

It comes in PowerPoint format which can be amended and changed to suit.

Norman Conquest Bundle

These lessons are designed to meet the needs of the Key Stage 3 National Curriculum and cover the development of the Church, state and society in Medieval Britain 1066-1509; the Norman Conquest. This bundle addresses key historical skills from the outset. Using history enquiry and evidence, student will find out who William the Conqueror was and how did he establish and maintain his rule in England. What were the causes and consequences of Castle building throughout the British Isles? What were the similarities and differences between the role of the Church, monks and nuns and Doom Paintings? What was significant about the Black Death and its effect on the population of Britain and Europe and how dangerous and unhygienic were Medieval towns? These skills are addressed in each of the lessons and allow students to be able to make connections, draw contrasts, analyse trends and be able to create their own structured accounts and written narratives. The lessons are broken down into the following: L1 William the Conqueror L2 Castles (+attacking a Castle game) L3 The Domesday Book L4 The Feudal system L5 The Church (free resource) L6 Doom Paintings L7 The Role of monks and nuns (free resource) L8 Medieval Towns L9 The Black Death L10 Crime and Punishment L11 The Bayeux Tapestry' L12 The Crusades (+ Key Word History Display) These lessons are designed to be fun, challenging, interactive and engaging. I would strongly recommend the students undertake an assessment at the end of this unit, using GCSE exam style questions from your own chosen exam board. All the lessons are differentiated and come with suggested teaching and learning strategies and link to the latest interpretations of the conquest from the BBC and other sources. All the resources come in PowerPoint format if there is a wish to adapt and change.
