This KS3 series of lessons investigate whether or not Field Marshal Haig deserves the nickname “The Butcher of the Somme” leading into a final source assessment. The Power Point leads students through all of the activities with accompanying student task booklet. Two short video clips are used to introduce the way in which Haig has been portrayed and the true nature of the Battle of the Somme. A simple cloze exercise outlines the key facts before a collection of sources are analysed to determine whether or not Haig does deserve to be known as “The Butcher”. This leads into a formal assessment where the students are asked to use the sources critically to produced a balanced written answer with a final judgment. A writing frame and mark scheme are included.
