Why did Henry VIII break from Rome? Love or religion?

Year 5 have had a very busy afternoon learning all about Henry VIII and why he broke away from the Catholic Church. We created a living graph of events that occurred in Catherine of Aragon’s life and found out that her life was pretty miserable!

We then took on the role of advisors to Henry VIII by conducting a conscience alley. After this we decided on our answer to the enquiry question by working in groups and looking at different reasons for Henry’s decision and deciding the significance of them.
