Hopefully, you've been able to access lessons one, lesson one of this unit of learning.

So you're ready for today's lesson.

Let's see what we're going to be doing.

Okay.

So our key question today is, who was Guy Fawkes? And this is lesson two of three.

And you're learning with me, Miss Emms. Hopefully before you do this lesson, you've had a chance to watch the video and complete the tasks for lesson one, because that learning comes before the learning we're going to do today.

Okay, let's have a look at our agenda.

So first things first, we're going to go over our Star Words.

So our key important words that we need to have a good understanding of to be able to do stage learning.

Then we're going to have a think about the person, Guy Fawkes.

And we've already thought about Guy Fawkes in lesson one, but today we're going to think about who he was in more detail.

After that, we're going to look we're going to have a think about some of the other conspirators.

Okay, the other plotters who were involved in this secret plan.

And then we're going to think about what happens next.

What happened, when guy after Guy Fawkes and his fellow conspirators attempted to blow up the Houses of Parliament? And at the end of the lesson, it will be time for you to complete your end of lesson quiz to see how much of today's learning you've been able to keep in your brain.

You will need three things in today's lesson.

You'll need some paper and again, that can be from a textbook or an exercise book.

An exercise book silly me, it's not a textbook, an exercise book or some plain paper.

And you're going to need a pencil and you're going to need your brain, ready to go.

Now you've got your brain, you'd need to go get your paper and your pencil.

So pause the video and go and get the things that you need.

Great, well done everyone.

Okay, let's have a look at our star words.

You ready to repeat my, star words, star words, star words.

Well done.

Conspirators.

Conspirators.

Good job.

So that we're going to learn what conspiracy means later on in the lesson.

We can also say plotters, people who were plotting to do something.

Guy Fawkes, we've already learnt in lesson one about who Guy Fawkes is and he is a really important person in today's lesson.

Religion.

We know that there are, the religion that we're thinking about is christianity, and that we are learning about catholics.

Okay, and Guy Fawkes is a catholic and protestant, like the king who we learnt about in lesson one, King James I.

So, a couple of recap questions now to see if you can remember some learning from lesson one.

I'm sure you'll be able to.

I want you to finish these sentences.

You can either do it out loud, or you can write them down.

King James I was a, catholic or protestant? Guy Fawkes was a, catholic or protestant? And the, the catholics or the protestants you need to choose were in charge.

That will help you to think about your learning from the last lesson make sure you're ready for today's learning.

So pause the video and complete your task and don't forget, don't forget to press play when you are finished.

Off you go pause now.

Fantastic work everyone.

So to recap King James I was a protestant.

Guy Fawkes was a catholic, and the protestants were in charge.

Take a minute to tick or fix your answers if you need to pause the video to do that.

Amazing.

And our next recap question, Why did Guy Fawkes want to blow up the Houses of Parliament? Why did he and his fellow conspirators want to do that? You're going to tell your screen or remember your teddy talk partner if you'd like to use a teddy talk partner.

Guy Fawkes wanted to blow up the Houses of Parliament because, tell your screen.

Great.

Well done everybody.

Excellent, excellent answer.

Guy Fawkes wanted to blow up the Houses of Parliament, because, and he might have had a few different answers here.

He was a catholic, and he didn't agree with the protestants laws, he didn't agree with King James's laws he wanted to kill King James.

You might have had any of those answers, when you told your screen.

Okay, let's move on.

So, Guy Fawkes.

Guy Fawkes was one of the important conspirators that wanted to blow up the Houses of Parliament.

Okay, but he wasn't the only one.

Before we learn about some of the others, we're going to have a think about his story.

And we're going to learn some facts about him.

So, Guy Fawkes was born on the 13th of April 1570 in a city called York, okay.

His catholic religion was very important to him, as we've learnt that he was a catholic, and this was really important to him.

He went to war in Europe to fight on behalf of Spain, which was a catholic country.

A man called Robert Catesby wanted Guy Fawkes' help in a plot to kill King James.

So Robert Catesby was in charge of this plot, and he wanted Guy Fawkes to help him.

Robert Catesby wanted Guy Fawkes to help because he knew how to use gunpowder.

So Guy Fawkes knew how to use gunpowder, which is a very explosive and dangerous thing.

Okay, so Robert Catesby wanted Guy Fawkes to help, so that he had Guy Fawkes's expertise in using gunpowder.

Okay.

Quick recap question for you.

Can you remember the name of the man who asked Guy Fawkes to help him? Tell your screen if you can, and then resume when you're finished, press pause.

The man was called? Did you get it? The man was called Robert Catesby.

Robert Catesby.

Okay, and why did Robert Catesby ask Guy Fawkes to help? What was the reason that Robert Catesby asked Guy Fawkes to help? Tell your screen, Robert Catesby, asked Guy Fawkes to help because? Tell your screen.

Right.

Robert Catesby knew that Guy Fawkes was able to or was good at using gunpowder.

Okay, so he needed his help.

So let's have a think now about the conspirators.

Conspiracy first is an important term that we need to have a good understanding of.

Conspiracy is, means a secret plan, so a conspiracy is a secret plan by a group to do something unlawful or harmful.

That means, according to the law is not allowed or it's going to do some harm some damage.

So let's pass that again.

Conspiracy, is a secret plan by a group to do something unlawful or harmful.

What does conspiracy mean? Let's practise again.

Conspiracy is a secret plan by a group or group of people to do something unlawful or harmful.

Pause the video now and tell your screen or your teddy, what is a conspiracy? A conspiracy is, go pause now.

Great.

A conspiracy is a secret plan by a group to do something unlawful or harmful.

So, here is a picture of the conspirators that were involved in the gunpowder plot.

Okay, so we've got, we've got Guy Fawkes, and we've got Robert Catesby.

Remember, Robert Catesby was sort of the ringleader.

That means that he was in charge and he asked for Guy Fawkes to help him.

I'm going to let you pause now if you'd like to have a look at the other people in this picture who were involved in the conspiracy.

Pause if you'd like to look at the picture for a little bit longer.

Great, well done.

We're just going to focus at the moment on Guy Fawkes and Robert Catesby, and we've learned that Robert Catesby was the man in charge.

And why did he want Guy Fawkes to help him again? He wanted Guy Fawkes to help him because, tell me.

Great.

Because Guy Fawkes knew how to use gunpowder, which is very dangerous and explosive.

So what do you think that all these people had in common? Okay, and you're going to use the words, catholics, protestants, and disliked catholics, protestants and disliked before you write your whole sentence, can you just write the starter? In my opinion, I want you to just write those three words now, in my opinion.

Pause and off you go.

And now you're thinking about what these people had in common.

So what's the same between all of these people? So you can say in my opinion, these people were all, and you're going to try and use catholics, protestants and disliked.

Pause and have a go at doing that now.

Okay, so you should have had something like, in my opinion, all of these people were catholics, who disliked protestants or who disliked the views, or beliefs or some of the views or beliefs of protestants.

Okay.

Right, well done everyone on completing that task.

So, now we're going to think about what happened next? The conspiracy did not work.

Okay.

What these people wanted to do to blow up the Houses of Parliament, it did not work.

Why? That plan was revealed to an important political person.

So somehow an important political person, someone who was able to help stop the conspiracy found out about the plan, and they were able to help stop it from happening.

And that means that on the 5th of November 1605, Guy Fawkes was caught with the gunpowder moments before the king was about to open parliament.

So it nearly was successful for Guy Fawkes and the other people the other conspirators, but in the end it wasn't.

He was caught moments before it was going to happen.

And Guy Fawkes went to jail on November the 5th, he went to jail or prison on November the 5th for what he had done.

So quickly a task for your recap task.

Why was the plan revealed? Is it option one, the conspirators were too loud.

Option two, the plan was revealed to an important political person, or option three, one of the conspirators was nervous and exposed the plan.

Can you point to the option that you think is correct.

Off you go point now.

If your finger is on option two, the plan was revealed to an important political person then well done.

That's the reason that the plan was revealed.

Okay.

Well done everyone great work.

Now I'd like you to pause the video to complete the next task.

What happens to Guy Fawkes and there's a picture there to help you.

Guy Fawkes was sent.

Where was he sent? Write down the sentence Guy Fawkes was sent to, write it down, pause, and off you go.

Guy Fawkes was sent to prison or jail.

Take off, fix your answer if you need to.

And next, it's going to be time for your end of lesson quiz to see what you've been able to remember from today's learning.

You've tried so hard, as always, great job today, everyone.

I'm feeling really proud of you.

You should be feeling proud of yourself.
