Year 5 worked as teams to develop a climax for their Tudor narrative. Their protagonist was a poor Tudor servant who was very tempted to steal some treasure from the Palace where he worked to change his fortune forever! The children discussed problems that would face the protagonist and how they might solve those problems (adventurously!). Once they had developed the climax, they presented it to their peers for feedback.
