This lesson is split into two parts; the first part explains the triangular trade and the various goods and transactions that occurred in the slave trade.
Students are required to find this out through documentary and video evidence before plotting it on a table. A mini plenary checks their understanding and uses a ‘what if’ question to challenge their thinking.
The second part analyses the story of Olaudah Equiano and how his life was before and after he was captured.
However the students are challenged to question his version of events and how there is conflicting evidence in his account.
The final part of this lesson analyses how the slaves were captured by whom, prioritising which were the most common forms of capture and using sources of evidence to extract further information.
The lesson is enquiry based with a key question using a lightbulb posed at the start of the lesson and revisited to show the progress of learning.
The resource includes suggested teaching strategies, retrieval practice, differentiated materials and comes in Powerpoint format if there is a wish to adapt and change.
