In this first lesson, students will investigate the roles of peasant women, noblewomen and townswomen, discovering how social class shaped their experiences.

They will compare these to the lives of medieval men and discover their similarities as well as differences. To consolidate their understanding, they will be able to match up different playing cards and complete a but, because and so task on their lives. There is also a case study on Queen Isabella of Castile to contrast the lives of women from the aristocracy as well as the poor.

The plenary is in the style of family fortunes, where students have to guess the 5 top answers to the questions, with points awarded for guessing correctly.

Students will be given a mixture of short and extended reading tasks, comprehension questions, discussion prompts and quick knowledge checks.

The lesson is enquiry based with a key question using a lightbulb posed at the start of the lesson and revisited to show the progress of learning.

The resource includes suggested teaching strategies, differentiated materials and comes in PowerPoint format if there is a wish to adapt and change.
