Each of these lessons comes with a document for students to work on, and a PPT to guide the lesson and provoke discussion. TOK and CAS links are included, as are essay planning and feedback sheets. Tasks are fully scaffolded and appropriately structured, with extension tasks on every activity. Each of the above topics is usually about two hours work, with some (e.g. Vietnam) being quite a bit longer.

These lessons are all easily editable and adapatable. There is no branding on anything, all in calibri, with plenty of images, videos and general support for EAL students. The lessons are ready to go upon downloading and are suitable for in class or online learning.

Links to the videos are in the notes section in the PPT (size constraints) but if you email me (contact details in file) after purchase I will share files (either Microsoft or Google) with the videos included.

Suffice to say, this will save you a LOT of planning time.
