A tutorial and related worksheet and activities to introduce the Depth Study option 1a (Western and Islamic World: Vikings) Yr 8 History. Some parts have been based on a TES Vikings introduction I found on this site (but I significantly adjusted and augmented it to add more detailed overview information and active learning activities). I have created and added a related worksheet and related learning activities. I have tried to make it a much more active learning activity than it was in its original form. Modified version is also attached.

Class activity for teaching "Big idea" concepts such as social justice in History, Geography and English using the "Hunger Games" movie/stories. No definite need to show these movies if students have already seen the movies or read the books (and they will almost certainly have done so), but it could be an option to read/view if needed).

Questions/activities to be used in conjunction with the movie 'Pompeii' (2014)- nice as an end of year activity to complement studies of Ancient Romans. Intended for 7 History (with appropriate parental permission for the movie), but could be adapted for other year groups. This works best as an adjunct to more comprehensive study of ancient Rome preceding this movie.

Learning activities related to map and the transition of the ancient world into the modern. Includes using a map as an historical source and a chronology exercise. This would work best if complemented by teacher explication of the reasons for the 'fall' of Rome, Constantine's relocation to Constantinople and where future topics (e.g. Vikings and Shoguns) to be studied fit into the chronology. It also includes a modified version of the task that has adaptations designed specifically for a student with difficulty writing and moving due to cerebral palsy.
