You can enjoy your subject more. You can enjoy your Pop Culture more.
You will learn to spot all sorts of information.
This will help you be more analytical in class and perceptive when playing games or working with others.
History in Pop Culture is a task for all students of History. Collect a card and complete it whenever you spot a historical reference in a TV show, movie, song, video game, book, website, news program etc.
The commercial properties are used here in the context of the lessons under educational free use. The fair use principle has been upheld in several legal precedents. There are no non-educational uses of these clips and there are no full episodes or films used for that purpose.
This FREE version of the resource contains a very basic outline and the Handout sheets which should focus the student's research into their invention. A writing prompt sheet is also there.
For more sheets and different versions in editable format download the PAID version.
These are basic identification worksheets that use promotional images from the film and link them to a grid. Different versions have the actual names of the characters and some do not.
Here are two PDFs with five spaces on either side and the second one a small space for the date to be separate.
PAID version also available and a Template bundle.
The PPT is simple and has the images of the "Events - Chronological" to use as a starter and get responses from students.
There is also a slide of famous "pop" musicians from different times
Then there is a slide that has the images of "Music Chronological" which asks the students to arrange the method for listening to music in chronological order. I have had students attempt this on the board after they have attempted it on the sheet. Many students do not even recognise the items. I suggest labelling them with your class before an attempt if they or you are unsure.
These two templates you can use to create your own Postcard for History Skills.
The Scholarship and Usefulness example postcards can be found at the end of this deck.
The first two slides have them in Lexend Deca font which is easily for students to read. The next two slides have the template in Calibri font, the standard for PPT and Office documents.
YOU CAN CREATE YOUR OWN POSTCARDS **

The Frayer Model is a type of graphic organizer that uses a four-square model to determine, clarify, and analyze word meaning and structure. The selected word to focus on is written in an oval in the middle of a page or chart paper. At times, the part of speech is also included in the oval. Each of the four squares is blank and has a heading at the top. The headings or labels on the top of each square include a variation of the words definition, attributes, characteristics, synonyms, examples, antonyms, or nonexamples.
The Frayer Model focuses on studying one word at a time with a prescribed technique and sequence to analyze and decipher the meaning and structure of the unknown word. Photographs or illustrations may also be added to help visualize the word.
I have three different worksheets for use when studying Whitechapel.

This micro history template is inspired by several different twitter uses.
I have created PowerPoint templates in A4 and A3 that you can use to cfreate your own micro history content that links to the wider history course.
Great for making large topics seem relevant!
For example, GCSE Crime and Punishment and Medicine through Time
Were the Police Effective? This uses the uniform images, Sherlock Holmes Movie, and images from around 1888 as a basis for assessing policing. Students should have a prior lesson on Victorian Police before this one.

Learn with Bart Simpson’s Detention Board OR use it for posters or PowerPoint templates.
These link to a useful site but my files explain it and give examples.
We know that repetition works with revision. This website has Bart write out a short sentence ten times Read that sentence ten times to train your brain to retain that sentence.
We know that organising topics into themes and key points can be very helpful when learning or revising a topic.
The website allows for a title and between one to six points to be generated into a simple chalkboard image. Save those images in folders and invoke your memories with a classroom setting to put you in the learning frame of mind.
This is a PowerPoint Template of sorts. I have not fixed the images or text so you can move them around.
Look for my Learn with Bart PowerPoint and Learn with Chalkboard, which are a useful revision tool
Check out collaborative learning and their people of the manor .
My files compliment the PDF you will find there. They are simple statements about the people there.
This is a basic intro lesson to settle students into the new GCSE. However, the video and worksheet can be used in Key Stage 3.

Scheme of Work is there as a guide
I use the sheet as a resource after showing the video below and an array of images that can be found online. Students can be scientific about their work or present a more emotional response.
