"We have stepped away from the boring worksheet-curriculum and are doing the Tudors as hands-on history. Richard is brilliant because he gives the children every opportunity to get involved and do things they couldn't do otherwise. A great experience for both me and my class!" Ken, Durham teacher
That History Bloke loves dressing up - and just wait until you see my Henry VIII costume!
This activity is adaptable to all age ranges and abilities within KS2. There are a variety of activities over a half day.
Firstly, learn some fascinating facts using the Tudor True or False quiz. Did people really paint their teeth black?
Then, get hands-on with some mystery Tudor artefacts - can you work out what they are for, who might have used them and for what purpose? Beware - some may be less tasteful than others...
Find out the gruesome truth about Tudor crime and punishment! Learn a Tudor recipe for black ink and have a go at signing a death warrant in the Tudor style (using quill pens and lots of concentration!)
Did you know that Shakespeare had AWFUL handwriting?
Finally, learn how to play an intriguing game of skill and strategy...
