Detailed timeline revision & blockbuster style game for a revision session for both the Cold War and Nazi Germany. Designed for Ed Excel History GCSE but will suit other specs.
Covers from the Treaty of Versailles to the invasion of Poland and all in between.
Covers from the Yalta, Potsdam conferences to the fall of the Berlin Wall and Gorbachev's fall.
Here are the complete resources for your very own challenge wall. I use these as extension activities, plenaries and rewards. I have laminated and cut out the cards, I have them in A5 pouches stuck to the wall. When we are completing an assessment and have finished they use the cards as an extension activity.
This is a world war one timeline board game. Students have to navigate around the battlefield answering Questions as they go. This will need to be printed a stuck together to produce an A2 sized board game. The students then answer questions related to the game. At the end of the lesson they will discuss what they found most interesting.
This will take a lot of effort but the results are worth it. Firstly, the stickers can be printed to labels and are a fantastic reward for Geography in general. The lesson itself is self explanatory, I got my students to do most of the teaching. You can adapt the differentiated activities accordingly. They also self assessed the merits of the work and rewarded each other. Overall this is one of my best lessons and I am a History teacher!
