The lesson begins with a starter exploring options on what to do with Mary AFTER the failed Northern rebellion. A video then explores Sheffield Manor Lodge focusing on strengths and weaknesses as a defensive base, alongside information about Mary. Students are then introduced to George Talbot and what the benefits/negatives would be of being responsible for Mary. The lesson then moves on to a carousel data capture focusing on the strengths of Sheffield Manor Lodge as a place of detention with a focus on location, features/facilities, George Talbot and limitations. Students then use their A3 table to create an estate agent profile on Sheffield Manor Lodge, finally answering a question explaining why Sheffield Manor Lodge was a good place to detain Mary. Finally, a recap plenary reviews the previous 3 lessons.
