The booklet contains 21 pages of exercises to help students revise the content from the AQA America: Expansion & Consolidation (1840-1895) unit. The whole course is covered and the booklet is designed to help students revise small chunks often over a longer period of time. I set two pages per week for KS4. If you find this resource useful you may wish to download the Conflict and Tension: 1918-1939 booklet that’s been made in the same style.

Will work with teacher-led activities in class rather than allowing for independent revision.

Slightly disappointed this is largely blank so not something students can revise from at home (until it's filled in), but will use it in revision sessions at school where teacher-led.
