Additional Info
Your homework this week is to prepare for the essay on the Battle of Hastings. The title is as follows:
It was Norman strengths, not English weaknesses, that resulted in William's victory at Hastings. How far do you agree?
Remember your structure for the essay. It should have 4 paragraphs;
1) Introduction (what is your argument?)
2) Norman strengths (give detailed evidence)
3) English weaknesses (give detailed evidence)
4) Conclusion (compare each side and address the question)
I will write this structure up on the board so you do not need to remember it. Instead, plan and revise the information (detailed evidence) you will write about in your essay to support your argument.
