This outstanding resource has been designed by experienced teachers to help develop students critical thinking skills whilst studying the causes of Britain’s Industrial Revolution 1750 - 1900.

If you are looking for a resource to for the full ability spectrum, then why not check out my card sort on this topic, which can be downloaded from my TES shop.

The document is provided in Microsoft Word so you can edit the resource if you wish to customise it further by changing any of the key factors that I have included. Once students have cut out the cards out they are set three tasks including: 1. Remove any reasons that you don’t think are important. Record and explain why you have removed them. 2. Arrange the remaining diamonds to show any links that you can find between the different reasons. Record and explain your reasons. 3. Make a smaller diamond shape using the four most important reasons why Britain had an Industrial revolution 1750 - 1900. Record and explain the reasons for your choices. At each stage students should be feeding back to their group or the class and explaining their choices. The discussion and explanation around the choices that they have made are critical in helping them develop their critical thinking skills as well as their understanding of the topic.

This great resource is designed to help students understand why the US economy boomed in the 1920's. It can used with pretty much any resource on this topic and is suitable for the full range of abilities. To help stretch students, I have also built in some challenge with a thinking skills review triangle activity at the end to help them prioritise which was the most important factor. This organiser could then be used as the basis for a plan along with the card sort for an extended piece of writing or essay on this topic. The resource includes eight heading cards including impact of the First World War, credit, confidence, natural resources, technological change, Republican policies, marketing and mass production. It also includes twenty statement cards. Six of these statement cards are on the second page along with the thinking skills review activity. For a lower ability class, you could just print off the first page and give them fourteen cards to sort. The aims and objectives for this lesson are: Theme: Why was there an economic boom in the 1920s? Know: What were the main reasons why the US economy grew? Understand: How did each factor help the economy boom? Evaluate: Which factors were the most important? WILF: What Am I Looking for? Identify & describe: The main reasons why the US economy boomed? Explain: How did each factor help the economy to grow rapidly? Analyse: Which factors were the most important?
