Crown & country - John D. Clare

This is an exciting Key Stage 3 resource for teaching lower attainers about the issues and events that characterise Tudor, Stuart and early 18th century Britain. It never lets go of the period's story, providing opportunities to examine the big picture and investigate particular topics. Discover which English king was killed by a mole, the year when bagpipes were classified as an 'offensive weapon' and a piper was sent to prison for playing them, and which English monarch's body exploded while awaiting burial.
