This resource includes a comprehension question worksheet and teacher answer sheet for evaluating the historical references and the significance of the historical events represented in the historic Christmas film ‘It’s a Wonderful Life’. A perfect activity for a History themed, Christmas film lesson or as part of a co-curricular History film club to consolidate their knowledge, ‘test’ the accuracy of the films’ representation of History and provide some engaging talking and discussion points afterwards! The film takes place in America and spans the 1920s-1940s with the majority of the film centered on the 1930s. With numerous features and excellent references to the economic boom, 1920s entertainment and city life, the Wall Street Crash, the Great Depression and the impact of WWII, this film is perfect for crystalising the key concepts within any America depth study or module (especially for the IGCSE and GCSE curricula) and bringing History to life (against the backdrop of Christmas!)

This resource consists of 65 PAPER 1 (A, B, C) STYLE QUESTIONS for the Cambridge History IGCSE Paper 1 core content for the 2024 June examination. The 65 questions are divided equally between the content of Chapters 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6. Chapter 5 is naturally omitted as this content will be used for Paper 2 this year, and as such students will not be tested on this during Paper 1. All materials included in this bundle have been produced following the completion of the New 2024 IGCSE training course delivered by Cambridge International Examinations for the 2024 specification.

Using Question Cs for longer practice at extended analytical writing - either as a main task, a weekly homework or revision task for Year 11. If you’re short on time, they’re also great for drafting essay plans to get students used to carving out those 3-4 minutes in the real exam to organise their themes and main line of argument.

This resource is designed to give students a crash course in the importance of dissecting sources carefully, rather than taking them at face value. Using one of the more complex League of Nations sources (which many students every year misinterpret), this lesson demonstrates to students how the overlooking or omission of the more subtle details of the source can COMPLETELY change the meaning and that consequently, with the clearest structure, the most sophisticated and ambitious features of written communication and the accurate analysis of numerous sub messages, their mark risks being capped at 50% if the main message is overlooked. I have also used it as cautionary tale to reinforce the danger of underestimating the challenge in a ‘what is the main message?’ question but ultimately the principles learned in this lesson apply to every source on every paper. In short, the highest marks are reserved for the most observant students, who include nuance in the exam answers and most importantly, that only with the most careful and comprehensive studying of the source can you hope to accurately piece together the main message and arrive at the most accurate conclusion. All materials are designed in preparation for the 2025 CIE IGCSE exam on KQ2 - The League of Nations (0470) to help students master their source analysis skills and hit every mark on that mark scheme! This lesson has been produced following the completion of the New 2024 onwards IGCSE specification training course delivered by Cambridge International Examinations (CIE). My last exam cohort of 90 students gained an average A grade overall at IGCSE, with 91% achieving an A-A*. Paper 2 was their strongest paper! The type of coaching in this lesson is what got them there.
