THE TUDORS
By: Julie Burgess, Christina Theocharous, Maeve Henry &

Reasons for choosing the Tudors
• One of the most pivotal periods of English history
• Interesting cross curricular links
• Covered extensively in the NC
• We have a good prior knowledge of the subject area
Focus Lesson- History
• QCA- Unit 8 section 2- ‘How comfortable were the lives of the rich Tudor people?
• NC- PoS 10 which links to the Tudors and the wider world
• Our focus lesson is part of a series of lessons related to differences between rich and poor in Tudor times
• As part of this area of History, the children have visited a Tudor World Experience
ICT used in focus lesson
• During this lesson we would use a video from espresso
• Espresso video • We felt this video would enhance the
visual and auditory learning of the children, whilst the sorting activity would stimulate the kinaesthetic learners
• We would use the IWB for sorting activities
• Sorting activity
