Year 6 Explore the Tudors

Yr6 -- the Tudors -- Jan2025

 Year 6 continued to explore their fasinating new Tudors topic last week in a very dramatic manner by re-enacting a divorce! The children were provided a short scene between the tyrannical Henry VIII and his beloved wife Catherine, exploring the complexity of the emotions between the two; using their own historical knowledge to get into character. First they simply read the lines out to one another and then they were allowed to include a singular chair as their prop to increase the tension in the scene using different levels and types of body language.
