A collection of 15 ready made quizzes to use with your groups. Each quiz is split into 3 sections - General knowledge, Movies/famous faces and a single 'ave a go' random question. The answer slides are included in each quiz. I split my groups into teams and then have a leader board going through the term. I have included a template for you to make your own future quizzes. In the template is another section called 'in the news' which you can add questions about the previous weeks news. I obviously removed them from the ready made quizzes as now outdated. All of these are great for building group rapport, competition and of course having a giggle.

I have used this simple activity for the past few years as an introduction to History in year 7. Though it can be adapted for other subjects. Give pupils 10 minutes to walk around and find people who they a share a hobby etc with. Put a cap on naming the same person twice to avoid friendships. Then go through each question and get their views. This is where you can discuss social History and tell them about topics they are going to learn about.

A history themed set of activities that can completed with classes over the festive period. Includes: - A quiz about the traditions of Christmas - An answer sheet for teachers - A timeline task for pupils to complete in the classroom and in the computer suite I have extended this activity by: - With KS2 groups I would advise using computers to research more facts and then get groups of pupils to present a short news broadcast about different time periods, e.g. Christmas in Medieval times , Christmas in Tudor times and Christmas in Victorian times. You can then have discussions about similarities and differences between the periods. - With older KS3 groups I am getting the pupils to place lots of facts about Christmas on the timeline and then getting them to put them in groups, e.g. facts about traditions, facts about rulers and highlighting these. Then we are looking for any turning points or times of continuity through history.
