What happened to the Princes in the Tower? SMSC Social and Cultural Question – Using these pictures, try to describe the fashion for boys at this time? Challenge – Do you think these pictures are truthful?

Prince Edward, aged 12 and Prince Richard, aged 9. In April 1483, the boys’ father died suddenly. Numeracy – Which century is this? Challenge - Can you work out what this death means to one of the boys in particular? (Do any of the picture clues help you?)

Richard, Duke of Gloucester, the boys’ uncle, was given the job of protecting the princes and helping young Edward until he was old enough to rule England on his own. However, there was a problem! The Duke of Gloucester was a jealous man and wanted to be King. Literacy – Write a definition for the word ‘jealous’ in 10 words or less.

Richard, Duke of Gloucester, crowned himself King Richard III of England in July This is where our mystery begins, because the two princes he was supposed to be protecting had vanished into thin air. Or had they?... Challenge - What do you know about Richard III? Why has he been in the news recently? What might the people of England think?

This is Henry Tudor, the sworn enemy of King Richard III. Literacy – What does ‘enemy’ mean? SMSC Moral Question – Can you name a pair of enemies from a book or film? Whose side are you on and why?

Henry Tudor fought King Richard III at the Battle of Bosworth in Henry Tudor won and became King Henry VII. Challenge – Who do you think was his very famous son? But some people of England thought Henry killed the Princes in the Tower...

King Richard III King Henry VII Can you write a sentence about each man using the correct words from below? Uncle Protect Jealous Tudor Enemy Battle Divide your page into 2 columns, one for each of these kings.

King Richard III King Henry VII So, who killed the Princes in the Tower? You need to look at the evidence and try to solve the mystery!

Source A Richard took Prince Edward and his brother to the Tower, and day by day they began to be seen less behind bars and windows, until they were seen no more. Written by an Italian man in His English wasn’t very good. Source B Richard had no reason to kill the boys. Henry had every reason. Henry was responsible for the crime, so they were quietly murdered. Written by historian Phillip Lindsay in Source C King Richard ordered men called Tyrell, Dighton and Forest to smother the boys with pillows whilst they were sleeping. Written in 1513 by Sir Thomas More, a man who hated Richard. Source D Henry Tudor gave important jobs to Tyrell, Dighton and Forest. Anonymous source. Source E Neither Henry nor the boys’ mother ever blamed Richard in public after his death. Modern website 2013 Select sources for each side of the case. Are they reliable? Use the 5W’s to decide!
