Y321 - 2003 Iraq War

An A-level lesson which asks students to consider the causes and the consequences of the 2003 invasion of Iraq. The lesson ties to the theme of the roles of the Great Powers, but covers content from other themes also.
Students will create a storyboard to understand the sequence of events leading to the invasion, and will then analyse and evaluate the consequences of the invasion in order to prepare themselves for considering turning point question in particular. Students will finish by drawing connections to other conflicts in the gulf region to help with their thematic understanding.
