Berlin Crisis (GCSE)

A lesson ideal for the new Edexcel GCSE Cold War course (adaptable to other exam boards), that looks at the Berlin Crisis and the consequences of this. Students will look at the key events, before deciding who was to blame for the escalation and the impact this had on the Cold War. Students will then look at the formation of NATO and the Warsaw Pact as a direct result of the crisis. Students will then look at a 16 mark question to consolidate knowledge.
