HISTORY - Crime and Punishment through the ages
Follow up task from yesterday
I hope you enjoyed learning about the different characters yesterday and had a chance to play Hot-Seating'. If you didn't get to use the character cards, please have a look at them now and read the criminal cards; look at the reasons they are in trouble.


Task:
Copy, trace or stick in this picture of a woman on the ducking stool in your book

She does not appear on the character cards. I would like you to create a card just for her... but first - watch this video. My jaw dropped and hit the floor as I watched this video. The quality is not great but worth sticking with it. Let's just say I'm glad I wasn't alive in Leominster in those days and my name is not Sarah... (stop video at 3.55)

If you have the time and resources - why not have a go at making a model of the ducking stool. Maybe you could collect some sticks and twigs and make it out of that. WARNING - do not try to use it on any living creature! 

p.s. - a final nugget of local historical information.
Have you heard of Tintern Abbey? This is not too far away from here. I wonder if you can look at some photos of it and discover why it looks that way now. Today's lesson will definitely help you with that question.
