This resource is suitable for both Y12 and Y13 classes studying Stuart Britain and the Crisis of Monarchy, 1603 - 1702. Introduction and revision suitable. As an introduction the idea behind the resource is to give students an easily accessible narrative to make them aware of the bigger picture of the course over the linear option. This introduces them to key people, events and themes that they most likely have not encountered before and therefore will increase their understanding when they encounter course content. As a revision activity they could annotate and add specific examples, links to other sections of the course or simply use as a recap. Great for helping lower attaining students access the complex issues.

This lesson focuses on providing students with information so they can complete their own investigation into the Babington, Throckmorton and Ridolfi plots but also study Catholic resistance.

Planned for Edexcel new 9-1 Elizabethan unit but general information would also suit any teaching on this area.

This whole lesson resource provides an interactive way to engage students with new content that they are going to study, therefore building confidence.

The Quiz Quiz Trade activity included, a game to introduce this new content- with instructions on the PPT!, can also be used as a revision activity at the end of a topic so a multifunctional resource. Used with KS4 and KS5 classes for both intro and revision and students very enthusiastic about it.

This is a thorough checklist covering all of the content of the Y12 and Y13 Stuart Britain and the Crisis of Monarchy 1603-1702. The format is based on questioning students so that they have to find out the information that they need rather than providing them with a description of events. My students have responded very positively to this extra challenge. In addition there is a column for students to tick completed sections that they have revised but an additional column to say whether they are confident or not with the topic. This has been used to highlight areas of whole class revision. Can be used with Y12 and Y13 classes.
