Word search and combined word search & quiz A more challenging version of the always popular activity - it comes in a range of versions to provide differing degrees of challenge: each wordsearch has a grid and to find – the same answers so that all students are covering the same range of people, places and terms whatever the level of support/challenge. The first version is a ‘traditional’ one with the words provided. Then there are four versions with a quiz: this has the same words to find but they aren’t provided -first you need to use the clues (questions) to work out what word you are searching for. One just has the clues then there are three supported versions (each of the four has the same clues): the first has the first letter of the answer; the second has the number of numbers in the answer and the third has both the first letter and number of letters. This provides students with the opportunity to develop their knowledge of a range of people, places and terms from the interwar period whilst providing varying degrees of challenge/support. They are suitable for use in class -both as a main activity and as an extension task- as well as for homework / independent study or a cover lesson activity or as a resource for ‘school at home (maybe even as staff challenge!)

Migration to Britain : Matching challenges
WiseArkResourcesWiseArkResources

Migration to Britain : Matching challenges

(0)
A set of linked resources and activities to help students improve their knowledge and understanding of migration to Britain. These resources are designed specifically to help with developing an awareness of those who have moved to live in Britain. This is linked to our other resources on the topic so features twenty groups of people and twenty individuals who have moved to Britain. There are two activities which involve matching either people to their reason for moving or an individual and a key point about them; ideal for use as a challenge that covers knowledge in a different way to a conventional worksheet. The first is a set of printable ‘cards’ which can be used for sorting or matching tasks (such as the matching pairs game) – each event is on a separate ‘card’ from its date, organised in sets of 10 -there are two sets, but each can be used separately or the two combined to increase the difficulty level. The second is a set of ‘domino cards’ to provide a more supported matching challenge; these feature the same events and each ‘card’ links to another forming a ‘domino’ like chain (which can be used as a set of 5 or both combined for greater challenge). They are suitable for use in class -both as a main activity and as an extension task- as well as for homework / independent study or a cover lesson activity (maybe even as staff challenge!)
Ancient Greece: Timeline activity
WiseArkResourcesWiseArkResources

Ancient Greece: Timeline activity

(0)
A simple sequencing activity to help develop chronological knowledge of Ancient Greece. There is a list of 28 events with dates -but events are listed alphabetically- and a blank table to enter the information into. So students need to sequence the dates first (there is a sheet/table to help them with doing this). There is also a support version in which the table to complete has the dates in order so students just need to find the corresponding event. The events are mostly those which feature in the linked resources on developing chronological understanding including the power point-from the First Olympics in 776 BCE to the Romans taking control of Greece in 146 BCE. This resource is suitable for use in class as well as ideal for homework / independent study.
