A detailed reading journal of The Handmaids Tale made by myself.
This journal looks at each chapter of the book individually and focuses on the summary, key events, quotes, structural devices and key themes.
Four chapters of Germany revision based on the OCR specification for A-Level students studying OCR History from 1919-1963.
These chapters include helpful revision notes that are summary based and simplified for students to skim through and to help with their note taking.
If students are unable to meet with the specification; this cluster of revision notes is very helpful as it is designed under sections of events concerning the specification as well as the colour coordination of red and green to understand the strengths/weaknesses as well as pros/cons.
It is ideal, simple and easily able to comprehend just by simplify reading these resources I have put together as an A-Level history student myself.
I truly believe that this would be very beneficial for students studying this specification as well as for students studying their GCSE as these revision notes also include a similiar specification for GCSE students studying Hitler and Germany before and under Hitler’s power.
Helpful for teachers and students.
