Takeaway Homework(4 Versions: Starbooks, KFC, Pizza, FA League)

Takeaway Homework(4 Versions: Starbooks, KFC, Pizza, FA League)

(0)
These sheets are handed out when setting homework and students choose one that they are going to complete. Each version of takeaway homework has some different tasks so I use different ones every so often to give students a range. I have a homework loyalty card so students know if they just the harder choices they get more stamps, with a completed card earning them a reward e.g phone call home. This worked really well to push students to challenge themselves. For the Pizza one I print out all the slices cut and laminate. I then went to local pizza chain and asked for a clean empty box and then placed them all in there. When setting homework students took a slice to do. The Starbooks version has a downloaded font so might not appear on the word document so a PDF is included which will have the chalk text effect.

French Revolution: How far do you agree Louis XVI was responsible for his own downfall? (Lesson 2)

(0)
A lesson aimed at a high ability year 8 class. This looks at whether Louis was to blame for the downfall of the Bourbon monarchy. Students look at the events that faced Louis and how they would react then they find out what Louis himself did and the consequences. Students throughout should be questioned about why they would make the choices. Then why was Louis choice a mistake or did he have any other options. You should try and push for a balanced picture of Louis as much as possible. Then students should discuss what their verdict of Louis is. Was he stupid, naive or just a disaster of a king? This lesson comes with challenge tasks and a homework task (though i used this for by less able students in the lesson as well). This lesson is very much a narrative lesson. Get students to read the information.
