What educators are saying

This was a fun resource. My 7th graders were pretty intrigued with learning about King Henry VIII and his many wives. They enjoyed getting to switch papers with a friend and doing the King Henry VIII Q and A after learning some more. Will use next year!
One of my favorite things to use with my students - they responded really well to it and it aligned perfectly with my standards!

Students first become historians as they recap the major events or turning points of King Henry's life.

Then, students decipher a famous poem/rhyme on Henry's six wives, including Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anne of Cleves, Katherine Howard, and Katherine Parr.

Finally, students travel back in time and conduct an interview with King Henry VIII. There are two modifications provided for this assignment for you to choose how to best engage your classroom!

This resource includes a paper in-class version and a 1:1 Google compatible version to be used in conjunction with Google Classroom. Just follow the included instructions for how to access the Google version, then share the resource through Google or assign via Google Classroom. This will allow students to type directly into the document!

Enjoy!
