The Bayeux Tapestry, designed for Year 7 History, but could be used across other age groups in KS3 if adapted.
This is a full lesson for 55 minutes, the slideshow comprehensively examines the Bayeux Tapestry as a Norman account of the 1066 Norman Conquest and Battle of Hastings at a KS3-level of ability. An animated video of the tapestry is linked with questions to accompany.
The lesson also includes a colouring-in activity with provided annotations of the scene of Harold’s death at the Battle of Hastings.
A critical reflection exercise follows where students are challenged to objectively scrutinise the validity and reliability of the tapestry as a historical source; a collation of evidence over two slides is provided for print or digital view for them to consider and then write an informed response to as a way to conclude the lesson.
Crossword activity also included, can be printed out.
