A Few Ideas

Average Rating3.83
(based on 138 reviews)

Boredom is the enemy of education. These resources aim to give students an engaging, fun way into topics that are relevant to their lives, including awkward ones like sex education, and informing about issues that are shaping the world and their future. My hope is that they help be an effective tool to the teacher to wake up a hunger for knowledge in students, and that everyone in the classroom would have a more enjoyable and enriching experience because of their use.

Entire, 10 lesson Holocaust Scheme of Work (with extensions and SEND resources)

(0)
A whole Holocaust/Shoah scheme of work with videos, worksheets, wordsearches, youtube videos, embedded videos that include real survivors talking about their experience. I've taught and tweeked this over 6 years, teaching it perhaps 30 times, adding a real dimension of Jewish faith and how the Holocaust/Shoah challenged and strengthened different people's faiths. Excellent resource for higher achievers: level 7-8 is quite common with the scafolding here. It starts historical, and then becomes increasingly integrated with the effect on Jewish Faith. There's really loads here, including 34 files in total, so plenty to chop and change. Lesson 1: Introduction: 6 258 673 Lesson 2: Propaganda and Indoctrination Lesson 3: Timeline and Gradual Change in Nazi Germany Lesson 4: The Ghettos Lesson 5: Jewish Identity Lesson 6: The Concentration camps and Anne Frank Lesson 7: What was lost? Who's to blame? Lesson 8: Rescuers Lesson 9: Fight Back! The Bielski Brothers Lesson 10: Lessons from the Holocaust Lesson 11: Assessment
