The Kingdom of Benin

These history resources support KS2/KS3 learners using EAL to learn about the Kingdom of Benin. The resources include visuals showing important resources and materials used in the Benin Kingdom, graphic organisers to help learners understand the timeline of events in the rise and fall of the Kingdom and compare the Kingdom of Benin with other civilisations, including Tudor England. There are also games and oracy activities to promote language development and scaffold learners’ ability to talk and write about historical events.
