This was created for a yr9 group, but could be easily adapted for different key stages and regions of the world. Great for assessing their research skills, understanding of place and how each place is shaped by the physical geography and historical events. Document includes clear success criteria, sample timeline & supporting images/links. Includes a peer assessment, if you choose for students to present/share their work. Students have really enjoyed the freedom of this activity and using gapminder. The task could cover 3 lessons, with the final lesson being the presentations and peer assessment.

I used these worksheets with my small SEN BESD group when introducing Ancient Greece. I used a carousel activity for them to gather facts and images for their fact file- which was immediately displayed and we watched a clip about ancient greek soliders and they added the labels (which are still on the word file) and completed the gap/extension tasks. More to come, need to find all the files!
