This is a knowledge organiser for World War II. It includes a basic timeline, key vocabulary, leaders and a map of the allies and axis (I’ve had to delete the image as I don’t own it but it’s easy to find one on the internet!). I’ve also uploaded a differentiated one for SEND children. This can be used as an assessment guide, but also for parents and children to learn some basics about WWII at home.

A great resource for sending home to parents of children who are studying The Islamic Civilisation. Gives them a timeline and background information on some of the most important people from this era. It also has key vocabulary from this topic with definitions on it. Great resource to start off the topic.

This English unit of work runs over 6 weeks and is based around the book ‘Stories from the Silk Road.’ It is the best way that I have found to enliven the topic ‘Islamic Civilisations’ and ensure that children learn deeply about it and this year, we taught it online, so it works well remotely. The plans include starters, main teaching, activities and differentiation, and I have uploaded all of the worksheets that I made to go alongside the unit. I can’t upload the smartboards due to copyright laws, so if you buy the unit and want these, leave me a comment with your email address and I can send them over to you.

A medium term plan for learning about World War II. It includes full lesson plans; differentiation for greater depth and SEN children; learning objectives linked to the NC; activities for the children to do including cross-curricular writing and examples of resources, such as books and websites, that can be used in lessons to support learning. It runs alongside my RE unit about the Holocaust, which you can purchase from my author page. They could be put together as one big History unit.
