A SmartBoard slide show and Word collection of difficult to find images and some research notes / dates about the Royal Menagerie zoo, a collection of animals kept (often in poor conditions) at the Tower of London from 1210 to 1832.
Liven up some of the duller areas of the new History curriculum (Tudors?), or link to themed animals work / PHSE.
Would your children be interested to know that ...
... a polar bear was taken to fish for its dinner in the Thames attached to a long rope.
... lions would roam loose inside the outer walls of the Tower.
... a room was set aside as 'monkey school' where visitors would pay to sit inside with monkeys loose all around them.
Lots of info, hours of research, but I haven't written a plan for this as there is so much you can do with it all - use it however it works with your class.
