This resource has been produced following the completion of the New Paper 4 IGCSE training course delivered by Cambridge International Examinations for the 2024 onwards specification (CIE), as well as using pupil feedback from the first cohort.
Most of my students love History. Many of them, however, say they struggle to remember the vast amounts of content and nitty gritty details of every topic. Even more say they struggle to know how to revise when they’re on their own.
This 50 page revision guide and activity booklet was designed last year with them in mind, as a way to streamline the content of the US depth study and provide them with stimulating and challenging review tasks throughout to make their revision active, rather than passive, and in doing so maximise their understanding as well as their recall abilities!
This booklet provides a complete review of 1920s USA content for the CIE IGCSE Depth Study (Paper 4). It contains full summaries of the key causes, features, events and consequences of the economic boom on US society, and examines the political, economic and social facets of each of these. In particular, my students found the breakdowns of key concepts into mnemonics, flow charts, fact files and colourful mindmaps extremely helpful in chunking the course content into easily digestible pieces and linking different aspects together.
Alongside these accessible and engaging explanations are numerous revision activites such as: challenge grids, knowledge organisers, diamond 9s, gap fills, scaffolded exam questions, model answers, colour codes, source analyses and many more.
The Paper 4 was new to all of us last year so I was thrilled when numerous students in my class gained over 35/40, with one student gaining 40/40. This booklet and my paper 4 masterclass were the two things students cited as most helpful in their pupil voice reflections after the exam.
This booklet covers the 1920s and social change only. Part two, covering the bust of the 1930s and attempted recovery during Hoover, FDR and WWI will be available soon!
