In this project the children will learn:
• About the everyday lives of the Tudor people;
• About the Kings and Queens of the Tudor period and their
impact on society;
• How to use first hand and secondary sources of evidence
and evaluate their accuracy;
• How human rights have changed since Tudor times;
• How to present a persuasive argument in scripts, reports
and in verbal presentations;
• About the social, political and moral issues of Tudor times;
• About the writer William Shakespeare and the significance
of his plays on English culture, theatre and language.
