This lesson includes:

  • A starter to recap the previous lesson on the breakdown of Becket's relationship with Henry.
  • A chance to study the image of Henry being whipped and have students guess/discuss what is going on.
  • A recap on the board of the breakdown in relations between the two men, and how the final scene played out when Henry called out about the 'troublesome priest'. Students then read 3 sources and answer a series of questions about the death of Becket using the sources to extract the information. They write which source told them the information at each point so that they can grasp the importance of studying multiple sources.
  • A short video from YouTube to followup on the death of Becket and it's implications.
  • A main activity to study the consequences of the death of Becket and write out the impact it had on the king, Becket's memory, the Church etc. so assess how it affected the king's power.
  • A plenary to update a progress sheet
