This is a bundle of resources, designed for KS3 and in particular year 7, introducing students to Britain in the Middle Ages. It does NOT include any Battle of Hastings related resources.
Resources have been grouped by activity, for example, Activity Instructions A1 needs to be used with Picture worksheets A1.
The bundle includes some differentiated resources as well as video files, which I hope will upload successfully. If not, please contact me and I can send these straight to you.
Activity 1 focuses on inference and what a historian can learn from evidence, also considering different interpretations of the same time period.
Activity 2 requires students to utilise their knowledge from Activity 1 and 3, to produce a news report or travel brochure about life in the middle ages. These activities focus on their skills of description and explanation in order to make a judgement about life in the middle ages at this time. Higher ability students will recognise that life for some was probably much better than for the majority.
Activity 3 could be completed after Activity 1, to gain more information about the landscape of England at this time and how people lived. Using the video clips, students can write their own descriptions about life at this time.
Activity 4 is a spy report about England to be sent to William, Duke of Normandy, which brings together all the different aspects considered and asks students to make a judgement on how easy it will be to invade England. the Hodder Medieval Realms textbook was used to support this activity.
