Discover how Reading developed through the influence of the Great Abbey and the kings and Queens who shaped its history: Henry l, who built the Abbey; Henry Vlll who dissolved it and Elizabeth l who enjoyed it as a Royal Palace. Geography, history, Religion and Literacy are just some of the themes we will cover in this interactive session.
The teacher pack for this session will include downloadable resources for activities before, during and after the session. For example:
Reading and its Abbey Virtual Session is perfect as support to Local History modules or in combination with our Bayeux Tapestry Virtual Session to explore Medieval History.
Really enjoyable and very informative!
