Knights and the Structure of Medieval Society

This pack aims to meet the syllabus requirement "Medieval Society: Feudalism and the Structure of Society" within the National Curriculum Key Stage 3, Core Study Unit 2, "Medieval Realms: Britain 1066 to 1500". The pack is designed to support and expand on the "I Was There" history series. Each one has been prepared by a working teacher and tested in the classroom. They offer the teacher opportunities to stimulate investigative learning both individually and in groups and to develop "flexible" teaching styles, and they encourage pupils to use a variety of methods to present their work. Each pack includes photocopiable material and contains: ten specially selected photographs from an "I Was There" book reproduced on laminated A4 cards, on the reverse of which are appropriate written and picture sources. Both sides are in full colour; ten investigation cards with questions based on the photograph and sources; mark-scheme; map and blank map for classroom work; time-line which sets the period being studied chronologically within world history; assessment grid; teacher's guide including ideas for teaching, assessment, cross-curricular possibilities and the use of information technology.
