PSHE History The GunPowder Plot PowerPoint with questions Complete Lesson

(0)
This is a 40/50-minute PowerPoint presentation on the GunPowder Plot, consisting of 14 slides. It is aimed at 14-16 year-olds but could be delivered to younger groups including Primary pupils. The presentation includes speakers notes and no further work would be required by the teacher. Contents of presentation: The plot was orchestrated by Guy Fawkes and a group of Catholic conspirators who planned to blow up the House of Lords during the State Opening of Parliament. The failure of the plot led to further persecution of Catholics in England and had a profound impact on English society. The presentation also covers the aftermath of the plot, including the introduction of the Observance of 5th November Act, which required an annual public thanksgiving from 1606 to 1859. Despite the repeal of the act, the tradition of bonfires and fireworks continued, and Guy Fawkes Night is still celebrated in the UK to this day. Additionally, the presentation discusses the history and significance of fireworks. Fireworks were invented in China and were initially used for entertainment and to scare away evil spirits. They have since become a symbol of celebration and are used to commemorate significant events, including the failure of the Gunpowder Plot. The presentation concludes by highlighting the impact of the Gunpowder Plot on English society and the importance of understanding this historical event to gain a deeper appreciation of English culture and history.
