The Rise of Mahatma Gandhi: video worksheets, differentiated.

See also my workshets for the East India Company and Clive of India.

Please ensure you can access the video before you get this resource. A very detailed, thorough, and engaging review of Gandhi’s life up to 1921. The film describes Gandhi’s philosophy; British attitude to India post WW1, the beginnings of Indian governance. Indian (inc. Gandhi’s) equivocal support for Britain. Britain’s wider empire troubles. The Amritsar Massacre, Dyer’s role and attitude, a catalyst for independence calls. All sources fully cited on the YT page.

Find the film by searching YouTube’s The Great War channel for “The Rise of Mahatma Gandhi (Documentary)”. My link omits a brief trailer at the end, the film will stop straight after my sheet’s final question if you use my embedded link.

15 questions for the 18-min film (not inc. the omitted trailer). Differentiated! Both versions look very similar, but “B” version has subtle clues. Questions right up to the end (of my embedded link), no slack time! Answer sheet. Very easy to mark. .doc & .pdf for all files.
