Abyssinian Crisis - 6-page full lesson (starter, notes, source analysis tasks, charades, plenary)

This is one of my most detailed IB lessons. Students are introduced to the topic with a hard hitting starter (please use with discretion) to introduce them to the idea of chemical weapons and to make links over time. They then read through the extremely detailed information pack before completing a range of source activities designed to help them with IB Paper 1 source handling skills. Students then test subject knowledge with the charade cards provided and conclude with a plenary PPT. I hope your students get as much from this lesson as mine always do.
