HISTORY: The Tudors - Henry VIII: Knowledge Organizer and Activity Sheet

This product is focused on the key information your students need when learning about The Tudors with a particular focus on the life and marriages of Henry VIII. We have produced two different worksheets (Knowledge Organizer and Activity Sheet) which explore the subject and events, and provide your students with varying activities to do, either to embed learning or become more interactive by researching and completing a range of tasks.

Knowledge Organizer

• Timeline of key events in the life of Henry VIII
• Family Tree identifying the six marriages and three children of Henry VIII
• Key Vocabulary linked to the life of Henry VIII
• True or False statements (with answers)

Activity Sheet

• Sequence events in a timeline from the life of Henry VIII
• Use the timeline to complete the marriages and outcomes of each marriage
• Use the timeline to complete the family tree of marriages and children – adding names and dates from the timeline to the grid
• Quiz
• Wordsearch to find the key vocabulary
• Cross word – use the key vocabulary to complete the activity

We use these activity sheets across the school to embed learning in our Historical work when studying periods in history. They are a great assessment tool, as well as a recapping activity to ensure that learning has taken place, with students referring back to prior learning to support their knowledge. The Knowledge Organizer also provides the answers to the some of the activities on the activity sheet.

Students love these sheets. They appear professional in their learning journals/work books and they see them as a fun way of showing their learning.

We have included both color and black and white versions of both activities.

These activities can also be found in our History Escape Rooms along with a range of Tudor related products – including planning and resources for the classroom. They can all be found here:
