This fun and interactive lesson has been designed around the topical issue on how far was the British Monarchy responsible for the Slave Trade? It can be used with all abilities as part of a history lesson or as tutor time activity. At its core, the lesson involves evaluating the historical evidence through a card sort exercise. This can be cut out and stuck into their books or completed by students creating a colour code or key. The lesson finishes off with a ‘Post-it’ note continuum line class voting exercise but could easily be extended with an essay, letter or speech writing exercise.
When you purchase this resource you will be able to download a 12 slide PowerPoint Presentation which includes aims, objectives, starters, plenaries, tasks, activities, video links, information slides as well as historical sources on Britain’s involvement in the Slave Trade.

These outstanding resources look at Britain's involvement in the Slave Trade and its abolition in 1807. They have been bundled together and heavily discounted in order to give your exception value. This topic is part of a statutory collection that all UK schools are required to teach. It contains several mature themes that have been approached in a sensitive and careful way. However, I would not recommend, teaching this topic to Year 7 students.
