For the current Year 8 History curriculum NSW and readily adaptable for the new syllabus.

From experience, I have found that no matter how many times you tell students what is expected with bookwork, many will 'forget' or not complete all aspects of expectations. To combat this, I have created a bookwork expectations list to be handed out each year/semester and glued into books so students have this in information in a concrete form. Then, I also have added a periodical self-checklist and marking sheet designed to be glued in every 10 pages or so. Students then complete the self checklist and hand in their book for marking. A teacher marking schedule is also included.

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.

Medieval Shogunate resources for Year 8 History including -A range of lesson information and activities for geography, religion, structure of society, samurai culture etc. (I also use other resources to cover other aspects of the topic not posted here because they are the work of others) Quality,effective and detailed work but provided without charge in the interest of collegiality. But for a complete unit of work that is far more detailed, engaging, unique, effective and comprehensive, you can also check out my premium Shogun Japan unit of work- much better than this one, different resources and much more detailed, varied, unique and effective- search 'gcmem' or 'Year 8 History Depth Study Asia and the Pacific World Shogun Japan COMPREHENSIVE Whole Unit of Work Parts 1 and 2 Bundle' athttps://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/depth-study-asia-and-the-pacific-world-shogun-japan-whole-unit-of-work-parts-1-and-2-bundle-11492921 also includes program and assessment task and much much more- 49 resource and activity files are included in the bundle and includes a bonus instant lesson on Attila the Hun. I like to offer most resources free (as I said above in the interest of collegiality), but this one is well worth the fair fee as it is weeks of quality work, completely unique and is a complete unit of work with lots of options for teacher choice and to teach to diversity. Also has a strong emphasis on literacy and numeracy. If you buy one of my resources, it helps me to pay for resources I buy on TES.
