Industrial Revolution Crime and Punishment

£3.00
(2)
The Industrial Revolution The aim of this lesson is to question how effective Victorian justice system was. This is an interesting and engaging lesson for students as they decide who was a criminal (from their looks), which were the most common crimes in the early 1800’s and what you could expect at a public hanging though some source analysis. By the end of the lesson, students will be able to answer the following questions: Why was it so easy to commit crime in the Victorian period in the early nineteenth century and if you were unfortunate to get caught what could you expect from Victorian justice? What was the Bloody Code and why was the law so harsh to offenders irrespective in some cases of sex or age? There are also three case studies to unpick and students are left questioning the morality and effectiveness of the punishments inflicted. Please note that the reform of the criminal justice system is dealt with in other lessons such as the Victorian prison system and the setting up of the Metropolitan Police force by Sir Robert Peel and the abolition of the Bloody Code. There are a choice of plenaries from hangman to bingo and heart, head, bag, bin which get the students to prioritise the most ‘effective’ methods used to deal with crime. The lesson is enquiry based with a key question using a lightbulb posed at the start of the lesson and revisited at the end to show the progress of learning. The resource comes in PowerPoint format if there is a wish to adapt and change. I have also included suggested teaching strategies to deliver the lesson and there are differentiated materials included.

Industrial Revolution Luddites and frame breaking

£3.50
(0)
The Industrial Revolution The aim of this lesson is to assess how close to revolution England became as a result of the protests of the Luddites in Northern England and the Rebecca Riots in Wales. This lesson is therefore split into two. Firstly students are given context of the heightened tensions and the fears of the Government with events abroad. To piece together the story of the Luddites, they are required to analyse two sources and use video evidence, before they decide how much of a threat the Luddites were to the authorities with frame breaking and factory riots. They will than have to judge and explain their reasoning using some statements given. The second part of the lesson will make a comparison with the Rebecca Riots in Wales. Students will learn about the events and seriousness of the riots through a multiple choice quiz, with points awarded for the correct answers, to make it competitive. They will then have to decide which actions of both proved the most serious and hence which posed more of a threat to the authorities. This can be seen in the aftermath and how they dealt with those involved. There are a number of literacy activities to complete including definitions, finding the missing words and unscrambling key words in the plenary. The lesson is enquiry based with a key question using a lightbulb posed at the start of the lesson and revisited at the end to show the progress of learning.

PLEASE FEEL FREE TO COMMENT ON THIS RESOURCE - ESPECIALLY IF YOU DOWNLOAD IT. This is a lesson that I used to introduce the Industrial Revolution. It is a very general lesson to get the students used to the idea that 1750 and 1900 looked and felt very different, hence the diary entry activity. This P/Point has borrowed from another that I downloaded from these very pages, although I have added features.
