I have chosen a podcast about King Richard III of England and his remains recently  found under a car park because I want  to introduce students to  archaeologists´  work with a topic related to the end of the Middle Ages in Great Britain. 


ACTIVITY: Students have to listen to this podcast and then,  they have to answer the following questions that will be written on the board. Afterwards, they will correct the exercise orally. 






What can human bones tell us  about the past?

When was King Richard III born?

How long was King Richard III  rule?

How did King Richard III die?

 Who ruled England after King Richard III   death?

Why is it  important for archaeologists  the DNA found?

What famous writer wrote a play about King Richard III?
