In this lesson, students will be able to understand and then explain the various reasons why there was a so called ‘Age of Exploration’ during the Elizabethan period. Students will be introduced to what little was known about the world by the end of the Medieval period and then discover why so many people began to explore the globe to expand our knowledge of the world.
The lesson contains a variety of discussion tasks, activities, printable resources, starters and learning reviews. The outcome will be the completion of an extended piece of writing which explains the causes of the ‘Age of Exploration’.
The lesson contains:
1 x Main Power Point (15 slides)
1 x Sorting Task/Fact Sheet which covers the main factors that led to an increase in exploration in the 1500s.
