China: Conflict, Crisis and Change 1900 – 1989. Designed for the Edexcel IGCSE Breadth Study but features a wide range of activities and approaches, and is in depth enough, that makes it excellent for all China history courses. It is a standalone SOW (e.g. you don’t need to refer to a text book) and each lesson is self-contained, with all the information and resources required to deliver at least a Good rated lesson if not an Outstanding one. Assessment & activity types are introduced and revisited based on a retrieval grid to ensure maximum learning and imbedding of skills and knowledge. Each lesson is estimated to take 45-60 minutes to complete but in my experience many can stretch over 2 or even 3 lessons depending on teacher judgement. Each lesson features as a minimum: Numeracy & Literacy challenges. Keywords (to add to a student glossary). EAL support sheets. Stretch and challenge activities. Teacher Quick Start Guide. Literacy support mats. Homework extension task mats. Context slide for the lesson. Part 1: Lessons included: Intro to China & Course Set Up. (with online self-marking quiz) Boxer Rebellion Causes & Events Boxer Rebellion Consequences & Reforms The 1911 Revolution 4th May Movement Sun Yet-Sen, Chiang Kai-Shek & Guomindang Recap Lesson 1: 1900 – 1926 (with online self-marking quiz) The United Front & The Communist Party Expeditions, Massacres and Exterminations 1926 – 1934 Recap lesson 2: 1926 – 1934 (with online self-marking quiz) The Long March 1934-35 Consequences of the Long March

1066 and the aftermath of conquest - featuring a unique immersive interactive Learning World (free to play!). The Learning World feeds directly into the in class lesson activities and can be used as an ongoing homework project – students can complete the free codex booklet as they go to consolidate learning. It is a very comprehensive SOW that covers the Norman conquest and its impact on English society. Each and every lesson has been made with enough differentiation, activity variety, cross-curricular support and progress checks that they could be used comfortably ‘out of the box’ in an observation lesson. Care has also been taken to make sure the skills complement each other across the SOW and build up to progress in exam writing ability, source analysis and soft skill development. I’m quite proud of it – if I may say so! The first two lessons and the Learning World Codex are free to download From my experience it created a huge ‘buzz’ about learning in the classroom and I even had kids in other classes asking to use it. So soon the whole department were using it and at KS3 parent’s evening it was all the parents talked about – many of them had also played through the Learning World. Note: The Learning World is a ‘beta’ version – I am currently looking for someone to upgrade the artwork to make a few things look more ‘Normany’. But I guarantee the pupils will love it.

Black Lives Matter: Why I am No Longer Talking To White People About Race by Reni Eddo-Lodge. This lesson takes the key themes of the book ‘Why I am No Longer Talking To White People About Race by Reni Eddo-Lodge’ and attempts to distill them into a format ready for a class room discussion. Ideal for discussions on race during a tutor period or at the end of a unit of work that features discussion on race. It is broken into the following stages: Intro to the author and initial mind mapping. A look at the history of black people, and their contribution, to British society. A discussion of how these historic experiences have created systemic racism – this is the crucial element of the lesson, to explain to students that being ‘colour blind’ can cause its own problems by neglecting to engage with the realities of black people. What is ‘white privilege’ and what could be done to stop it? A look at the NFL’s “Rooney Rule”. PEE paragraph on the Rooney Rule. Ending thoughts and development of mind maps. Extension task: Read Eddo-Lodge’s article. EAL Task: Keyword focus sheet I do not for a second pretend to be an expert in these matters but this is my attempt to introduce the discussion of systemic racism into my classroom. I hope it can be of some use to you in your classrooms too. If you feel I have said something wrong or phrased something insensitively please contact me at thomas@wolseyacademy.com and we can make corrections together. Hope it helps.
