English History and Literature students:

I gave an assignment to the Monday class that I believe I forgot to give to the Wednesday class. The assignment is:

1. Go online to bbc.co.uk/history/interactive/games/
Under British history play the "Gunpowder Plot Game" and the Elizabethan Spy Game."

2. Next: Go online and Google schoolhistory.co.uk.

Click on the first site under that category. The site will come up. On the left side of the page you will see "Reviewed Internet Links." Go to AS/A2 Level. Go to Charles I. Go to Texts Relating to Charles I. Read the first transcript, the one on the King's execution.

On the same site: Go to the main page in the middle. Click on "Online History Lessons." Scroll down to Cromwell where it says "What sort of man was Cromwell?" and click. Answer the questions about the document. Open the download.
