Students will: Identify the terms of the treaty of versaille watching a video and completing a worksheet Describe whether the terms were fair - guided think pair share activity Explain how to answer question 3d through use of examiners mark schemes criticise a model answer to demonstrate what their own work should include attempt a PEEL paragraph of their own using an interpretation.

This follows a lesson I have posted about the Treaty of Versailles. Pupils will examine sources in small groups through use of a carousel activity where each group adds to the last groups ideas (making it harder as they progress around the room and meaning they have to pick out smaller features of sources). They will then use this skill to analyse a skill themselves, before feedback to the class (AFL slide included). Following this pupils attempt a fully differentiated how useful question with options for two different structure strips and either two sources or one. Once completed pupils peer assess their work to explain what is good about their work and how they can move forwards next time they see that question type.

WALT: Explain how the creation of a police state changed things in Germany. Identify the features of a police state. Describe how one aspect of the police state worked. Explain the role played by the Gestapo in keeping control. Evaluate Hitler and the Nazi Party’s use of the police state. starter: key words activity Task one: infer two things from a source, including full mark answer so that pupils can self assess and improve their work. task two: video activity demonstrating how the police state functions task three: as seen on cover photo, pupils describe the key branches of the police state and explain how it helped Hitler keep control of Germany. task four: pupils examine four sources and apply criteria to explain which they feel is most useful for the enquiry (skills building).

WALT: Revise the events of 1066 and apply to an exam question. WILF 1: Identify events of each battle. WILF 2: Explain why William won the Battle of Hastings WILF 3: Evaluate how far you agree with a statement to come to a clear judgement. As with all of my revision lessons this lesson is accompanied by a single A3 sheet so that pupils do not require exercise books. task one: identify key events of each battle by labelling key features task two: question poing - 15 questions covering claim to the throne, Gate Fulford, Stamford Bridge and Hastings Task three: scales task planning 16 mark question task four: How far do you agree question with focus on integrated judgement (pictured)

Based on the game 'Beer Pong’ Rules:The class will be split into two teams. Each team will take turns answering questions to get a chance to throw the ball into the other sides cups. If you get the question wrong, the other team gets to throw the ball at your cups. The winning team is the first to clear all of their opponents cups. (and will receive haribo/chocolate) the resource includes questions that fly on and off screen - the answers to the questions are in the notes sections.

This lesson, like all of my revision lessons, is fully resourced so that pupils can work fully on worksheets - not requiring any exercise books or lined paper.

WILF 4: Evaluate who made the biggest contribution to medicine and compare their contribution to another individual Starter: pupils name as many individuals as they can and what they did Support: code breaker with five individuals encoded Task one: pupils name the individuals in the yellow box and two features of their work - i give students a different coloured post it note to add any others they think deserve to be in the top five and why as an extension. (as an extra task they can order them from ost to least important, then in chronological order) task two: students create the histograms shown in the cover image - aim is to allow them to analyse individuals without too much writing task three how far do you agree question

These quizzes have been designed as 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 tasks to drop into other lessons. The idea is to use them as a way to interleave prior knowledge into current topics and ensure that knowledge is returned to frequently to develop knowledge retention. The 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 structure gives students instant formative assessment in which they can then choose a topic to ‘pledge’ to revise that week as part of their homework. Every quiz has a green pen slide with answers to go through with students to support the teacher. Students find these tasks very fun and engaging and can see where their strengths and weaknesses across a topic lie. I have designed the task to revise important concepts briefly at least once by the time they have completed all of the starter activities. The activities could also be used as a building block to help students identify what they will be doing for the rest of the lesson (to be used closer to exams when completing revision tasks).

This lesson is designed as an introductory lesson for GCSE students to the American West topic (Edexcel 9-1). It focuses on the founding of the 13 colonies and the geography of the American West. it includes two videos that provide context for students and a skills builder section focusing on developing a very basic narrative account structure as for some students this may be their first introduction to this question type. WALT: Explore the arrival of Europeans in America. Identify what life was like in the first settlements. describe the geography of the United States in the 1800s. Create a narrative account describing the growth of America. Hypothesise why the colonies wanted independence from Britain in 1776.

WALT explain why there was progress in medicine 1500-1700. Recall individuals who contributed to medicine during the Renaissance period. Describe features of Renaissance medicine. Explain why there was progress in the understanding of the human body 1500-1700. Apply: Analyse factors that contributed to medical progress 1500-1700. Students start by recapping contributions of key individuals in the period before attempting a four mark question based on those individuals. Knowledge is layered through use of two videos before students unpick how factors caused progress, particularly in reference to anatomy, during the period 1500-1700.

WALT evaluate why there was progress in medicine 1900-today Recall key developments of medicine in the 1900s. Describe changes to public health in the 1900s. Explain why developments demonstrated significant progress. Apply: Analyse why there was rapid progress in medicine 1900-present. Students revise the modern period with a focus on progress. The lesson builds up to a graph task which asks students to measure the impact of each breakthrough which then supports their knowledge with the application task. Students are asked to look at their graph and only select ideas that focus on causes to address a common mistake made by students when sitting the GCSE (missing the focus of the question).
