Powerful Women: Boudicca

This lesson looks at Boudicca’s speech to her army as reported by the Romans. It focuses on the use of emotional language and what the purpose of using this language is. Space is left for teachers to include their own starter.

I have created this lesson as part of a wider scheme of work about the speeches of powerful women through history, but this could work as a stand alone lesson, although learning objectives would need to be altered.
