During the Miners’ Strike, striking miners travelled to working pits in Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire to become ‘flying pickets’. This strategy involved picketing outside coal mines to persuade other miners to join the strike. There is an outstanding resource that explores the reasons behind this phenomenon. This resource has been refined and fine-tuned in the classroom over a period of 20 years. It was recognised for its excellence and received a national teaching award from Becta in 2008. Additionally, all the interviews conducted by the Doncaster Oral History Project, which provide valuable insights into the Miners’ Strike, have been uploaded to YouTube. These interviews, along with their accompanying teaching resources, have been bundled together and made available on the TES platform. This allows educators and students to access a comprehensive collection of tried and tested materials related to the Miners’ Strike. When you download this free resource, you will recieve a four page PDF document that contains information, historical sources, interactive tasks and activities related to the topic.

This outstanding literacy lesson has been designed by experienced history teachers at the History Academy to help students understand why the Normans built Square Keep Castles. It forms part of a series of lessons on why the Normans built castles, which can be downloaded and purchased from our TES Shop or from the bundled link below. However, this lesson will run alongside any main stream resources on Norman castles and can be adapted to suit any similar buildings in your local historical environment. The teaching model for this lesson to at first draw upon students prior knowledge about formal letters, persuasive techniques, Motte & Bailey and Square Keep Castles. The activities in the PowerPoint are designed to build upon this knowledge in preparation for students assessing three different letters that I have included in the pack. These letters should be printed off along with the assessment criteria grid that I have included along with various templates and writing frames for writing formal and persuasive letters. It is always a good idea to ask your English department about what techniques they use with your students for this type of writing exercise so that you can achieve the best results with your students. Once your students have assessed the three letters that I have included, o dubious quality, they can then have a go at drafting their own responses and then finishing them off for homework. These can then be assessed using your whole school marking policy for peer assessment and my assessment criteria grid at the start of the next lesson. They can then have ago at redrafting or typing them up and again finishing them off for homework. The whole thing should take two lessons, but that depends upon how much lesson time you have. Once finished these letters make excellent display work as you can see from the photographs that I have included. I usually get my students to age their letters The aims and objectives for this lesson are: Theme: How did William keep control? Know: What are the literacy rules for writing a formal persuasive letter? Understand: Why did the Normans build Stone Keep Castles? Evaluate: Why did William de Warenne rebuild Conisbrough Castle?

In 2003, the British government introduced a comprehensive National Literacy Strategy that included Key Stage 3 (KS3) History. However, since that time, there has been a notable lack of ongoing advice and guidance from the government on this crucial area. This resource aims to provide teachers with some effective literacy strategies utilized by the authors at the History Academy, consolidating our free resources on this vital topic. We were motivated to develop this CPD resource in response to numerous requests for support from our younger colleagues, to whom we dedicate this training. The literacy strategies presented in this PowerPoint are derived from our extensive, hands-on classroom experience in teaching history, particularly in challenging school environments. These strategies have been tried and tested on the front line, and while they are effective, we encourage you to adapt them to meet the specific needs of your school context. This free resource can be used in a departmental meeting or as a self study guide. When you download it, you will be able to access a PowerPoint presentation with 42 slides and which contains aims, objectives, differentiated outcomes, starters, plenaries, information slides, historical sources, writing frames, video and free resource links to the TES. I have also included the original N/C guidance documents. The literacy strategies covered are: Snowballing Writing Frames Humanities Literacy Mats PEE / PEEL Modelling Oracy The aims and objectives of this training are: Theme: Literacy Know: What different literacy strategies can we use in the history classroom? Understand: How do these help to raise achievement? Evaluate: What strategies will work within my school context? Skills: Literacy, SMSC & Collaboration WILF – What Am I Looking For?

This unit is designed to allow students to investigate how William consolidated his control of Britain after the Norman invasion. It starts by looking at the 'Harrying of the North' by William and how he ruthlessness wiped out all opposition to his rule. The second unit looks at how he rewarded his supporters and tightened his control by introducing the Feudal System. Whilst studying this unit it is important to emphases the importance of doing 'homage' and taking the 'oath of allegiance' as William placed considerable importance on this aspect. His key justification for the Norman invasion was his claim that King Harold was an oath breaker and that his victory was a vindication of the just by God. The fourth unit looks at the Domesday Book and how land and wealth was distributed. Please make sure you point how to your students how much land and wealth was given to the Church as the Pope had supported his invasion. The final two units look at the roles played by different types of castles in helping William consulate his control. This resource is best used alongside the Heinemann History series which is referred to in the scheme of work. It represents excellent value as I have included all the relevant lesson resources along with two literacy mats to help students write a persuasive letter to their local Lord explaining why they should replace the Motte and Bailey Castle with a Square Keep Castle. This work makes an excellent display and assessment work, especially if students age their work with tea bags or coffee. All my students have thoroughly enjoyed this scheme of work as it lends itself to memorable educational moments that will last them a lifetime. Kind Regards Roy
