2E The English Revolution, 1625–1660 AQA, Unit 3: The Experiment in Absolutism 1629 - 40

These interactive A Level resources were developed during lock down for my sixth form students studying AQA Level History, 2E The English Revolution, 1625–1660. Unit 3 covers the Personal Rule of Charles I from 1629 - 1640.

When you purchase this unit you will be able to download 11 PowerPoints which cover: How have historians interpreted the personal rule; chief ministers; organisation and administration of the personal rule; financial policies; reaction to the financial policies; Laud and religion in England; Laud and religion in Scotland; growth of the Puritan opposition; the role of Sir Thomas Wentworth; reactions and demands for the recall of Parliament; the Prayer Book Rebellion. I have also added in my AQA essay and source feedback sheets.

Please note that these are my lesson resources which you will need to edit up for your own class. They will save you a lot of time. Each PowerPoint contains aims, objectives, differentiated outcomes, links to the syllabus, page numbers for text books and relevant tasks and activities to help students make effective notes. You will need the following text books as a minimum: Oxford AQA History, the English Revolution 1625 - 1660, SHP England 1625 - 1660, Charles I, the English Civil War and Cromwell. You will also need my favourite text book for this topic: Stuart Britain 1603 - 1714, Context Series. All the other text books I have used are referenced in the PowerPoints. Please remember that you will have to adapt these notes for your school / institution but if you get stuck for resources or want any help you can contact me via the history academy facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/TheHistoryAcademy
