Activity - Who was to blame for the Cold War?

Two activities on the Cold War, ideal for the first few lessons or revision. The flowchart activity encourages students to gather details from the Soviet takeover of Eastern Europe to the Berlin Blockade. The colour-coding gets students to think about the beginnings of the conflict from both points of view. You could then extend this into a debate. To differentiate up I’ve encouraged students to come up with their own reasons that were just bad luck or bad timing.
