Queen's Platinum Jubilee KS2

Queen's Platinum Jubilee lesson for KS2 / KS3 (Year 7). In this lesson, the students will explore the reasons why we are celebrating the Queen's Platinum Jubilee. We will take a detailed look at the key milestones of Queen Elizabeth's historic reign and reflect on what she means to the British people. The students will order the key events in Elizabeth's remarkable life, and in doing so create a decorative and informative Jubilee bunting garland. In our plenary task, the students will use their knowledge to design a commemorative Jubilee coin. The lesson includes a starter activity, a video clip with accompanying questions, a chronological bunting activity with and associated reflection task, and finally a 'design a commemorative coin' plenary task. The lesson is well-differentiated with three-level challenges for each task, contains a variety of activities, a detailed and colourful PowerPoint, clips with differentiated questions, clear measurable LOs and other activities. It is fully editable, engaging and very easy to follow.
