GCSE History Edexcel Medicine SHP B - Independent Revision Programme

(0)
This resource can be used by students as an independent revision programme or used by teachers to deliver revision sessions in the weeks leading up to the Medicine exam. Pupils will gain factual knowledge of the course as well as a better understanding of the exam technique needed for each question type. Furthermore, each unit covers a good range of past exam questions together with knowledge organisers and writing frames (to support the less able). The resource provides: a) A summary of the key facts/knowledge you need for the Medicine Exam. It gives pupils a fresh start to re-learn the course, without the need to re-read class notes! Key knowledge has been organised in periods of history with common sub headings signposting the main themes that run throughout the course. KEY PERIODS: Roman Medicine Medieval Medicine Renaissance Medicine 1750 - 1900 1900 onwards The KEY THEMES within each period include: How the cause of illness was explained How illness was prevented How illness was treated Care of the Sick Training of Doctors Public Health b) My students use this resource initially to make high quality revision notes such as flash cards, mind maps, bullet point lists. c) Sample exam questions are also provided at the end of each period/section and students can choose to answer at least one exam question in full under timed conditions. d) Furthermore, each exam question is accompanied with a suggested writing frame and/or a graphic organiser, making the resource fully differentiated . My D/C/B students really benefited from this (as did some of my A grade target students who need to adopt a less narrative and more analytical approach to exam technique).

(0)
The last days of Anne Boleyn - Worksheet to Support the BBC TV Documentary. Designed for independent/ enrichment/ extension work, the worksheet allows the students to work through the programme collecting and analysing data through a variety of tasks Writers and historians including Hilary Mantel and Philippa Gregory revisit the last days of Anne Boleyn, who in 1536 became the first queen in British history to be executed. Anne Boleyn is one of the most famous and controversial women in British history. In 1536, she became the first queen in Britain’s history to be executed. The brutal speed of her downfall and the astonishing nature of the charges against her - treason, adultery, even incest - make her story shocking even to this day. Yet whilst we know how Anne died, the story of why she had to go and who authored her violent end has been the subject of fiery debate across six centuries. In a radical new approach to televised history, a stellar cast of writers and historians, including Hilary Mantel, David Starkey, Philippa Gregory and others, battle out the story of her last days and give their own unique interpretations of her destruction.

Gunpowder 5-11, The Greatest Terror Plot - Worksheet to support the BBC Documentary Drama documentary revealing the inner secrets of the Gunpowder Plot, using the words of the plotters themselves. Based on the interrogations of Thomas Wintour and Guy Fawkes. For the first time, the inner secrets of the gunpowder plotters are dramatised using the actual words of their most senior captured leader Thomas Wintour, Guy Fawkes and state interrogators investigating the 18-month conspiracy in which a family circle of militant Catholic gentlemen tried to blow up king and parliament. Wintour’s insider account of this epic tale of faith, fanaticism, persecution and betrayal is told in detail, from his recruitment of both Fawkes and his own brother to his capture in a dramatic siege and bloody shoot-out on 8 November. The hopes, fears and plans for a Midlands rebellion, royal kidnap, the plotters’ penetration of the king’s bodyguard and Fawkes’s attendance, sword in hand, at a wedding attended by the king in December 1604 are shown, as well as a dramatisation of the thrilling, forgotten story of the final days after 5/11 as the conspirators are hunted down and then face the terrible punishments reserved for traitors.

EDEXCEL 9-1GCSE - Topic 2: HENRY VIII SUMMARY 'TOPIC ON A PAGE’ consolidation, revision, resource

(0)
EDEXCEL HISTORY GCSE - Topic 2: Henry & Cromwell 1529-40 ‘HENRY VIII AND HIS MINISTERS’ SUMMARY 'TOPIC ON A PAGE’ consolidation, revision, resource: This resource provides students with a 'TOPIC ON A PAGE’ summary for each topic of the Henry VIII and his Ministers Unit. It fully covers the syllabus content for each topic and can be used by students and teachers to: a) consolidate knowledge and understanding to encourage student mastery (embedding academic language and concepts) after students have completed a topic in class or as a homework task, helping them identify areas of strengths and weaknesses b) as a quick starter activity to review prior learning or weeks/months later as a spaced retrieval practice task. I regularly take sections from the placemats and use them to support spiralled learning. c) to encourage relevant exam responses - specifically targeting the FEATURES and 12 MARK EXPLAIN questions - knowledge is organised into CAUSES and CONSEQUENCES in line with sample exam questions e.g.) Why was Anne Boleyn Executed? Students are then directed to include three relevant examples that can be cited in the exam and allow access to the highest levels. Students have commented that this has helped them revise an organised and planned response to exam questions that result in a more concise written response in exam conditions. d) the question squares can be cut up into cards to form an interactive timeline activity or ranking task when completing causation questions. They can also be used to support the HOW FAR DO YOU AGREE questions - organising knowledge into agree and disagree arguments. e) as a useful revision aid before the final exam. (Many of my Year 11 students rely on these sheets in the final weeks and days of revision and have commented that they have helped make factual recall of the huge volume of the syllabus content more achievable. The topic on a page summaries can be used as a stand alone resource or in conjunction with the Edexcel Pearson Revision Guide, where all of the answers can be found. This resource can also be used in conjunction with the topic placemats that I have produced to support students in lessons. In particular, I have successfully used the TOPIC ON A PAGE summaries with the ‘EXAM TECHNIQUE’ side of the placemats so when students are given exam questions, they can quickly find relevant supporting knowledge to use in a response. I have used this resource successfully with students targeted Levels 4- 9. It could be easily adapted for students working on or below L3.
