This resource comprises a 103 question knowledge test based on the key information of the Origins of the Cold War. Currently used as a fact test / team quiz / revision resource for my students studying CIE IGCSE for KQ4, I’ve also used it for the Edexcel IGCSE module on Superpower Tensions as well as for the British GCSE curriculum.

The test is broken down into the 9 sections outlined below and could be used all together as a single summative assessment or a fun team based quiz at the end of the topic.

Alternatively the test could be delivered as 9 mini checkpoints throughout the course which is how I often use them to build knowledge. Additionally, they are great for a low stakes starter, plenary or homework task.

Resource details:
Section A: Why did the US-Soviet alliance begin to break down in 1945? (13 questions)
Section B: The Yalta Conference, February 1945 (16 questions)
Section C: The Potsdam Conference, July 1945 (11 questions)
Section D: The Iron Curtain Speech, 1946 (6 questions)
Section E: Stalin’s Takeover of Eastern Europe (8 questions)
Section F: How did the USA react to Soviet Expansionism? (15 questions)
Section G: The Berlin Blockade (Causes and Events), 1948 (13 questions)
Section H: The Berlin Blockade (Consequences, NATO and the Warsaw Pact) (11 questions)
Section I: Who was to blame for the Cold War? (11 questions)

Great for revisiting at the end of the chapter, at the end of the whole scheme/core content, during the revision period or incorporating into a study pack before students go on study leave.

This resource also comes with a full and detailed answer sheet to speed up marking or for students to self assess with.
