ReplyDeleteI would be a rich Tudor so that I can know how heavy the gowns were. I would also like to be rich to see the patterns on the gowns and to see what they wore on parties.
ReplyDeleteI would like to be rich to see what’s inside the patterns on their houses. I would like to look at other people
If I were to choose either to be a rich person or a poor person in the Tudor times I would like to be rich.I would like to be rich because you get a big house ,lots of servants and a big garden to play in. Another reason is that my house would not set on fire as it is made of stone and brick.I would also get to attend a lot of parties and feasts held by kings, queens, dukes and duchesses.
ReplyDeleteI would rather be in the rich Tudor because I want to see the big hall.I would be in the rich Tudor so I can see Henry VII.In the rich Tudor they wore so many clothes over so it would of been warm.
ReplyDeleteIf I was in the poor Tudors I would just have to work and I have to eat bread. In the poor Tudors you would only change the clothes if they were ripped.Rich Tudors have like homes like a big castle.
I would be a rich Tudor person because they have nice food. MY first reason being a Tudor is they have really beautiful clothes.My second reason is they really have fancy houses.My third reason of being a rich Tudor is they have really good Kings and Queens.
ReplyDeleteI don`t want to be a poor Tudor because they have smelly houses and bad clothes . They work every day and all day and they only get a small amount of money each day and they only eat bread with seeds and they keep animals for milk ,cheese, eggs.
ReplyDeleteI would rather be a rich Tudor because they were healthier than the poor people and they had way better food and were even cleaner. Generally they had better life condition and sometimes poor people pooped in a bucket and threw it out the window but rich Tudors had better toilets. The houses of the poor people were made out of a lot of animal dung but the rich Tudors had no animal dung.
ReplyDeleteThese are the reasons I wouldn't be a rich Tudor. The houses are so close. Fire would spread for miles. They put cream that was made of lead to make sure they don’t look like a worker and lead is poisonous.
I would rather be a rich Tudor because I can wear heavy gowns and make-up also so I don’t have to do really hard work and I can tell my servants what to do. If I was poor I would do work all day and eat disgusting food. I would wear lots of make-up and wear pretty clothes with jewels and crowns. Out of all the monarchs’ I would be Elizabeth 1st because she was sensible and nice, new more than the other monarchs’ in the Tudor times.
ReplyDeleteAt dinner times I would be eating yummy food and so with breakfast and lunch. If I become a queen I would make new rules for rich schools and marry only a rich man. The rules would be good and fair, and everyone would respect me and bow down at me. When I wanted to relax and watch a play I would go down to The Globe Theatre and watch a good play but if it was bad I would throw tomatoes. I would sleep in a warm bed.
Rich Or Poor Tudors
ReplyDeleteI would rather live as a rich Tudor.The reason why is because they had shimmering emeralds
all over their dresses and the emeralds shimmered every ten seconds.
Rich Tudors showed that they were rich by their houses and things that costed lots of money.
However I don't want to be a Tudor because they only did a bath once a year, but rich ladies had
a hole in their gowns to rub herbs to smell themselves nice and there used to wear so many
layers of jackets on them.Poor had to struggle for food and houses.There are no comforts that
we are having today in our daily life.Tudor toilets are called 'Privies' but not private at all.Poor
people used soft lambs wool as tissues.It was usual for school pupils to attend school for 6 days
a week but as a result we attend school only five days.Can you believe that in Tudor period boys
began school at the age of four and moved to grammar school at the age of seven?? Girls were
either kept at home by their parents to help with housework or sent out to work to bring money
in for the family.I would not like to be a poor Tudor because of two reasons . Because they wore
leather clothes! . Because they would have to be out all the time and that would make you have
a sun burn.I would like to be a rich Tudor, but the only problem is that it will pain when you
weir a layer after layer.

DeleteI would like to be poor because if I were to be rich I would have to marry. The second reason I would like to be poor is because I could all on my own . I sometimes like to be on my own. My third reason is because I would not like to have diabetes. My fourth reason is that the poor Tudors have the most happiest lives , but the rich people have a bad life because of sicknesses.
ReplyDeleteMy first reason why is because I woul rather be a poor Tudor because if I would be a rich Tudor I was beware is really thick clothes. A reason why is because I might get poisoned by the white lead cream they used so that they would look more whiter and look less like a worker in the Tudor times. The third reason why is because The fire would spread really easily because they would have lots of big buildings, but they might not spread very fast because they are brick buildings
ReplyDeleteI would not be a rich tutor because otherwise I would be wearing thick clothes. I would be spreading lots and lots of white lead cream on my face every day just like Queen Elizabeth the first did. If would be A rich tutor my palace would be spreading fire everywhere but not very fast because they are made of brick and stone anyway my house will not be on fire if I would be a rich Tudor close I would be taking very very good care of it because I don't want my house to catch fire!

ReplyDeleteI would rather be a rich Tudor so I meet Henry VIII and have a big house.Plus I would wear famous clothes with Jewlery such as rubies , sapphires and emeralds.Another reason for being a rich Tudor because wealthy people could afford all types of foods.
ReplyDeleteFood was another show of wealth.The rich could afford all kinds of meat and fish and expensive French wine.The best food was considered to be roast veal and venison.people also ate robins , badgers , otters , tortoise and seagulls.
Poor Tudors ate bread made from rye and barley.In the Tudor times life was harsh for poor people.Poor people struggled to survive.
I would rather be a rich because you wear big stuff and fat stuff
ReplyDeleteking henry had a rich house and if you wear rich things then you wiil get a rich house i like the clothers because it as lots and lots of jewles on the dress and t-shirts.
I would not be a poor because they no not wear famous clothes
and dresses.Being a poor is not very ice so who ever chose
to be a poor don't be a poor at those time it was ugly
and famous times.

I would not be a rich Tudor because you would have to pay for every
thing and the wasted money for rich cloths and you would die because they had cream or powder and in the powder they had lead.
Rich Tudors enjoyed much better food than poor. Rich Tudors used gold or silver plates,and silver spoons.
ReplyDeletePoor people had to work for a living poor people lived in smally cramped houses , often damp.
CLOTHES
RICH: comfortable expensive clothing and jewellery.
poor: Only one or tow sets of clothes made from cheap fabrics.

I could also enjoy hunting tennis and bowls. I would have big glass windows if I was poor I would have wooden shutters or a whole in the wall for windows and light.
