These award winning resources, will simply take your breath away. They look in depth at the problems facing coal miners and the solutions that they came up with from 1750 - 1900.
The PowerPoint includes the aims and objectives, information slides, eight activities, an assessment, pupil mark scheme and three outstanding video clips from interviews with Doncaster coal miners that I created as part of an oral history project. The worksheet can be used along side the PowerPoint, but contains and additional four differentiated activities for lower ability students. Meanwhile, the card sort exercise is designed as a mini plenary to help you assess what your students have learnt so far in preparation or the assessment task.
The aims and objectives are:
Theme: How did the steam engine revolutionise industry?
Know: What changes took place in the coal mining industry 1750 - 1850?
Understand: How the new methods increased coal production?
Evaluate: How did the steam engine revolutionise mining production?
Skills: Cause, Consequence, Significance, Evaluation and Judgement.
What Am I Looking For this lesson?
Identify = the changes that took place in the coal mining industry.
Describe = the changes that took place in the coal mining industry.
Explain = how the new machinery and steam engines improved coal production?
Analyse = form a judgement how far the steam engine revolutionized coal production?
In 2011, I was awarded a teaching award for the oral history resources and interactive content that I developed for these lesson resources, which you can download for a bargain price!
Activity 1: A Snowballing Exercise
Activity 2: Produce a spider graph summarising the problems facing miner using a clip from worst jobs in history
Activity 3: Class Feedback and review of what has been learnt
Activity 4: Jot down five facts about surviving a rood collapse in a coal mine
Activity 5: Guess my job
Activity 6: Card Sort
Activity 7: Class discussion: How far did the steam engine solve the problems facing miners
Activity 8: Spider Summary
Activity 9: Assessment with student mark scheme.
Have fun - these resources should span 2/3 lessons but can easily be adapted.
Kind Regards
Roy
