A number of worksheets focusing on the war in the air and the Battle of Britain. The PowerPoint can be used as a starter activity: students are given a poster showing British and German planes (in pairs); they must hold up coloured pages (from planners) to decide whether the plane on the board is British or German. There are then a number of questions based on the Battle of Britain map that has been included, along with a source analysis of the War in the Air.

A useful card sort and revision sheet for pandemics through time, to be used in conjunction with the 'medicine through time' style unit from any exam board (this was designed for AQA). Give students the cut out cards and ask them to put them together in groups for each pandemic (categories include: name, date, cause, treatment etc.) The content is fairly basic at this stage, as the next task is to transfer this information (in note form) on to the blank table, along with further detail from class work/textbooks. This can then be used for revision, particularly for Q3 of the AQA paper which asks students to make comparisons across the period (e.g. 'Compare the cholera epidemic with the Black Death, in what ways are they similar?)

These resources relate to the AQA GCSE History unit, Britain: Health and the People. Most tasks require the blue textbook from Hodder. Included is a gap fill worksheet on antiseptics and aseptics, a card sort activity on opposition to carbolic acid, and a utility question (question 1) on carbolic acid. These resources are intended to be used as part of a much broader lesson on antiseptics and aseptics. Also included are some class notes on anaesthetics that may be useful.

These resources relate to the AQA GCSE History unit, Britain: Health and the People. Many of the tasks require the blue textbook from Hodder that accompanies the course. Included is a gap fill task on modern medical developments along with a summary of some of the key improvements that took place during this time. These resources are intended to be used as part of a wider collection of activities/tasks on modern medicine, as they are not comprehensive of this chapter in the text book. Nevertheless, they provide excellent additions to class work or homework.

A fun and engaging starter activity for pupils studying Norman England & the Harrying of the North. Please see instructions below: 1) Divide the room up into 4 regions using the region labels. Assign chairs to the regions and have the remaining chairs in a 'holding area' nearby (this will be for the Norman soldiers). There should be 60% of pupils in the holding area as Norman soldiers and 40% split across the three regions (excluding the SE). 2) Talk through the PowerPoint. You will need to change the number of lords/soldiers coming and going depending on your class size, as all pupils will be able to participate. Here is how the changes should go: > S.E. lords have died in battle (leave this region empty at the beginning). William replaces these with 100% of his own soldiers > Rebellion in the Midlands: William replaces 25% of the English lords with his own soldiers > Rebellion in the South West: William replaces 50% of the lords with his own soldiers > Rebellion in the North: William replaces 100% of the lords (the Englishmen are killed) I made mini landowner crowns for the landowners to wear (made out of corrugated display borders!) and these were transferred from Englishman to Norman after the rebellions. I also made the deposed Englishmen sit on the floor in front of their new barons to show they are beneath them! This lesson ties in really well with lessons on castles and the Feudal System.

Students are given a visual source (WikiCommons) and are tasked with analysing/evaluating the source for homework. This is a great worksheet to complete towards the end of the slavery topic, as the students will be able to appreciate the sentiments of the image. There are prompts underneath the image to encourage students to explain the source in more detail. This worksheet is intended for KS3.
