Superpower Relations WWII Conferences

The Cold War Superpower Relations Topic 1

Edexcel GCSE: I made these lessons to save time as I had to teach the entire Unit 2A in just 18-20 lessons. I have managed to squish each key topic down into 6 lessons with exam questions generally being sat as homework. These lessons worked surprisingly well despite only having 6 lessons! It does require some printing however if you are organised you could have your repro dept print all the sheets into a booklet with alternative pages for notes. Includes the whole of key topic 1: Origins of the Cold War. Lesson 1: Peace Conferences WWII and the Grand Alliance Lesson 2: Escalating tensions and breakdown of Grand Alliance Lesson 3: Truman Doctrine, Marshall Plan, Cominform and Comecon Lesson 4: The first Berlin Crisis-Berlin Blockade and Berlin Airlift Lesson 5: The Nuclear Arms Race Lesson 6: The Hungarian Rising/ Revolution and Soviet invasion Exam questions included: Explain two consequences of the Yalta Conference (includes model answer) Write a narrative account analysing key events of the Berlin Crisis 1948 (8 marks) includes modelling End of topic key content quiz- 18 questions
