A great task for starting a unit on the French Revolution. Every member of the class is given 10 Divine Right Points and must complete a set of Scenarios as King Louis XVI. The goal of the task is to stay in power and prevent a revolution by keeping as many Divine Right Points as possible.
This activity focuses on the decisions of King Louis XVI throughout the French Revolution. This is a unit starter task to introduce the French Revolution. It is best suited for a GCSE class, MYP 4-5 Class or a Key Stage 3 class. This is a decision making task that can take up to 30 minutes. Students should also be encouraged to justify their decisions.
As an extension task, a class discussion on the nature of the French Revolution; how much of the revolution was actually preventable from Louis XVI's perspective is recommended.
There are two files in this set, one is a powerpoint to be used in the lesson and the other is a set of instructions.
