This is one lesson from a series of 6 lessons that focus on the History of Food. Each lesson is fully resourced with anything that needs printing at the end of the PowerPoint ready in a print friendly format.
The idea of this series of lessons is to introduce students to key historical skills using content they are familiar with and find engaging. We have had huge success with these lessons at Wolsey Academy with students often demanding that we teach more of them. The work produced from these lessons has also been exceptional, with the main activity in each lesson being scaffolded and supported in a number of ways. For details of each lesson please see below. If purchasing just one lesson, make sure you have seen the details for that one below.
These lessons have also been used by our Business Teachers as excellent case studies to introduce new businesses and industries.
