This lesson is titled ‘What can we learn about Queen Elizabeth I from her portraits?”
This lesson begins with a Starter Activity in which the class are introduced to a bust of the soccer player Cristiano Ronaldo that was unveiled at a Portuguese airport in 2017. It is a rather unkind likeness! Students are invited to offer their response to what they would do if someone created such a horrible picture of them and they then consider how an all-powerful Monarch like Elizabeth I might respond. The lesson title and aims and graduated objectives are then introduced (all will/most will/some will) and there are slides of background information about Elizabeth I’s reign to allow for teacher exposition. After this five major Royal Portraits are shown and there is emphasis on the inferences that can be drawn (rainbows for divine power, globes to represent world trade and dominions etc). After this the class have a summary of devices used and are asked to create their own portraits in the main activity. This works much better if you can book a session in your school’s Art Department and use real paint! The lesson objectives are revisited and the lesson concludes with a peer assessment plenary activity. This lesson has been created for high school students and I hope yours enjoy it as much as mine do.
