A fun addition to any unit about Medieval castles and from personal experience has been great for Year 6/7 subject transition days and school open evenings as well as for lessons covering Medieval England and the Norman Conquest.

Following a recap of Medieval weaponry, students work as a team or individually to plan either a castle siege or castle attack based on a list of costings.

This resource contains:
1 x Castle game costings list (PDF & PPT)
1 x Main Power Point which includes:

• Slide 1: Title slide
• Slide 2-3: Recap Activity covering the main weapons of castle attack such as trebuchet, siege ladders, archers etc.
• Slide 4-5: Recap Activity 2 covering the images of castle attack weapons
• Slide 6: Setting the scene for the castle attack to give the attack historical context.
• Slide 7-10: A choice of three castle attack sheets each with a slightly different castle (stone keep, concentric and motte and bailey). These need to be printed out onto A3
• Slide 11-12: Peer Assessment cards
• Slide 13: Learning Review
• Slide 14: More from RA Resources
