What This Standard Means
What Students Need to Do
- Trace the war from the English victory at Agincourt to the French gains after Orléans. Explain how Henry V was named heir to the French throne and how Joan of Arc helped Charles VII reach his coronation. Connect the French victory to stronger royal power and England's loss of land in France.
What Mastery Looks Like
- A student puts Agincourt, the Treaty of Troyes, Orléans, and Charles VII's coronation in order. They explain why Henry V's gains did not last and how Joan helped turn the war toward France. They name an effect that lasted beyond the fighting.
Common Misconceptions
- Students may think England won the war because Henry V won at Agincourt. Some think Joan of Arc commanded the entire French army or lived to see the war end. Others mistake Charles VII's coronation for the end of the war.
How to Assess It
- Exit ticket: Put Agincourt, the Treaty of Troyes, Orléans, and Charles VII's coronation in order. Then write how Henry V and Joan each changed the war, and name one lasting effect.
Lesson moves
Ways to Teach It
Give pairs dated event cards, string, and clothespins; have them build a timeline from Agincourt to Charles VII's coronation.
Ask: Why did Henry V's victory at Agincourt not decide the war? Have students use one later event as evidence.
Play turning point or lasting effect: students sort cards labeled Orléans, English land losses, and stronger French monarchy, then defend their choices.
Show a photo of Joan of Arc's statue in Orléans; have students write a caption explaining why the city honors her.
