Great work from Higher History⭐️ final bit of consolidation for their Issue 6 Britain essay💫

Higher had to piece together their own giants with information on how labour helped tackle their needs💥

Fantastic work, the giants were filled with KU and analysis🥳

Higher history tried to make alliances🫡

For appeasement issue 2 the pupils were assigned a country and had to make alliances🫣

However throughout there was some surprise events🤩 Alliances were brought into question🤣

Great way to provide context around this factor🎉

Today, S2 held a trial for Mary Queen of Scots, accused of murdering Lord Darnley 🧑‍⚖️

Each student played a role, delivering speeches and answering questions when called to the stand.

Fantastic props were used—and the jury found her NOT GUILTY! 🥳
