A high-school History teacher who is currently travelling and updating resources to share. Please leave some feedback so I can know if you liked the worksheet or resource or if there is something I can change to make it more accessible for all. My resources are generally scaffolded, offer a range of tasks that students from varying abilities can understand and the instruction is clear.
