Write in the heading Mary Tudor in your file
Under a side heading Mary’s Reign (1553-1558) write in a brief account of her life in which you:
a) explain the religious changes that she made in England
b) explain how Mary made sure that everyone became a Roman Catholic
c) say who she married and why that was a great mistake
d) describe how and why she died
Use the book but you will need to find a little more information for which you should look at one of the following sites (Also perhaps include pictures of Mary and Philip II of Spain):
1) http://home.earthlink.net/~elisale/ From the front page use the section on Mary as Queen and her marriage. Remember that you are only looking for extra information
Site also has pictures
2) http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Aegean/7545/MaryI.html go to the middle Tudor Monarchs – chose Mary Tudor and scroll through to the last section
3) http://www.britannica.com/bcom/eb/article/6/0,5716,52476+2+51210,00.html Use last paragraph for a summary of Mary’s life
Put in side heading Sources on Mary’s Reign and use page in your book:
Read Source C: What is meant by a "martyr"? Why is Foxe’s list surprising?
Use Sources D and E: Were these sources made by a Protestant or Catholic? Explain
Conclusion
In this paragraph say whether you think that Mary was successful in bringing back the Catholic Religion to England and whether you think that she deserved the title of "Bloody Mary"
