<p>This lesson is heavy on History specific pedagogy and is designed to be placed towards the end of a study into World War One, analysing significance.</p> <p>Drawing on Christine Counsell’s generalisations and Rob Phillips’ Significance criteria, pupils use this lesson to address misconceptions about World War One to accurately evaluate the significance of the event, over 100 years after it has ended.</p> <p>The lesson has different activities that have gripped many classes who find it tough to concentrate on teacher talk for too long and there’s enough happening in the lesson to keep high attainers occupied and stretched.</p> <p>There is an option for a second lesson wherein they design their own memorial, however I have often found it is better to leave that and just do one lesson.</p>
