I have written a series of lessons promoting powerful female figures in History that predate the Tudors. The thinking was to make my curriculum more inclusive and to improve the gender balance across key stage 3 in terms of the content that is taught. As such, my ‘herstory’ (instead of History) unit is something I’m quite proud of.
The lessons can be taught either in isolation as case studies, embedded into the curriculum taught in year 7 or taught as its own unit of work in its own right.
Lessons include:
Lesson 1 - Boduccia
Lesson 2 - Empress Matilda
Lesson 3 - Eleanor of Aquitaine
Lesson 4 - Joan of Arc
All lessons are written for students with a reading age between 11-12 to ensure accessiblity. All resources are included with the lesson. Lesson can be taught by a non-specialist.
