The English Civil War: L3 'Which side was likely to win the English Civil War in 1642?'

Easy to follow lesson on the Civil War. Students are introduced to some facts about each side in 1642 which they use to collect evidence and score each side’s strengths and weaknesses at the start of the war. They record this data in a table which they then use to make a trump style trading card game for a royalist or parliamentarian. They add an annotated illustration (resources for this included in PowerPoint). The final task is writing up their findings by responding to the lesson’s question.
