Cold War 1941-91 Complete Knowledge Organiser Bundle

(3)
Complete set of my Cold War knowledge organisers which I designed to complement Edexcel’s GCSE Superpower Relations and the Cold War, 1941-91 course. There is a dual coding element: The moustache = Stalin because of his facial hair The dog = Churchill because of the car insurance adverts The lone star = Roosevelt because of the stars on the American flag The shooting star = Truman - same as Roosevelt but Truman’s is shooting because of the dropping of the Atom bomb The tie = Attlee - seemed appropriate The eye = Eisenhower - EYE-senhower The Hammer = Khrushchev - Hammer is symbol of Soviet Union and Khrushchev has an industrial background The piggy bank = JFK - reasoning is threefold; 1. JFK came from a wealthy family, 2. he presided over the ‘Bay of Pigs’ incident 3. the piggy bank has a hole in it The telephone = Nixon because of the phone tapping in the Watergate scandal The wallet = Ford because the USA suffered the worst economy since the depression under president Ford The U-turn = Carter because of his lenient position on the Soviet Union The heart with pulse line = Brezhnev because he dies of a heart attack The theatre masks = Reagan because of his hollywood background The trophy = Gorbachev because he won the Nobel Peace Prize The bush/shrub = George Bush because it’s a bush. The rest of the icons are purely illustrative
