This is a seven lesson unit that looks at the enquiry question ‘Why did William become king of England?’ Each lesson is provided through a PowerPoint, though some come with additional worksheets/resources. Each lesson is numbered for easy identification as to which resources fit with which lesson, and the overall recommended order to the course. The expected outcome of the unit is an assessed essay on the question ‘Why did William become king of England’, built around the following factors: The strength of the different claims The different strength of the nations William being prepared Harold being unprepared The specific events of the Battle of Hastings itself Luck Some slides come with additional notes to support understanding of the tasks or information on the slide. Alongside the content being imparted, these lessons also provide structured guidance on written technique.

Despite what the sample images suggest, the text does align and fit properly within the slides. I’m unsure why the sample images are showing this incorrectly. Three lessons are provided that start a new enquiry looking at crime and punishment over time, as well as providing the first two lessons of the unit for the Roman period. One additional worksheet is also provided to be used alongside the second lesson. Additional guidance is given in the notes to provide teachers with the necessary talking points. It is recommended that these are read through before delivering the lessons, as the lessons are quite teacher-led. Further resources for the enquiry will cover: The medieval period The Renaissance period The Victorian period These lessons build towards an eventual assessment question: ‘How did crime and punishment change over time?’

Just a short lesson that provides an introduction to the functions of political parties. This lesson was run with students having access to research devices (phones/laptops). They were provided with the features and functions by the teacher, then set off to research the different areas. The direction of the discussion is shown in the image file within the lesson.

The third section of the Crime and Punishment unit. As mentioned in prior uploads, the text looks odd in some of the sample images for the resources - this is not the case within the actual resources once downloaded. If you do have any issues, please let me know. Included are two PowerPoint lessons that take students through the Renaissance period for Crime and Punishment. It is strongly encouraged to read the notes of the slides before presenting the lesson, to get a view of the content and the focus of each task. The final slide of each lesson has a large white box. In my lessons, I used this to type up sentence starters and some sentences based upon student input. If you are not comfortable with using PowerPoint to do this in lesson, I would encourage populating this information before the lesson.

Two lessons are provided on crime and punishment in the medieval period. Each lesson comes with a suitable word resource to provide additional content and structure learning. This is a continuation of the Crime & Punishment unit. The previous lessons (introduction & the Roman period) are already uploaded. For stretch and challenge: encourage students to develop their understanding of change and continuity through branching the medieval period into the Anglo-Saxon and Norman periods.

Part 2 of the audio-enabled, self-teach unit on the Italian Renaissance. Please refer to either part 1 or the overall enquiry bundle for full details.

The first lesson in my audio-enabled enquiry on the causes of the Italian Renaissance. Full information can be found in the larger bundle for the wider enquiry. This lesson is provided independently in case the price of the overall bundle is prohibitive.

A lesson giving an overview of Hitler’s approach to dealing with the economy. This would either be appropriate for a KS3 lesson where you are covering the different components to Hitler’s leadership, or for an introductory lesson to a GCSE course.

In delivering this lesson, I needed to carry some content over into the subsequent lesson. As such, I have provided both presentation documents so that you may draw as you’d like from each in building out/delivering your own lesson. These lessons look at the Purges and the Secret Police, including an information sheet for students to read.
