End of Lock Down picture quiz 004. This quiz offers 20 images of important people dating back to the Romans in Britain to the end of the 20th Century. Each picture includes a number of clues to help identify the person. All of the people chosen have made a significant contribution to History around the World. The historical figures would probably best suit children from the Secondary sector but I am fairly sure that older Primary students may also benefit greatly from the choice of famous people included in this quiz. My selection includes people from Science, Sport, Politics, Royalty and Literature. I am sure that the children will learn a lot from the choice of people included. I hope you enjoy this quiz. Ian Patterson.

This is the fourth set of Lock down Quiz challenges (Numbers 016 to 020). Initially these quizzes were prepared for my two grand-daughters who are 9 and 11 years old. Some questions are easy others are challenging even for students in Years 10 and 11. The aim is to learn from the questions we cannot answer. These quiizzes are available to all parents and teachers who may wish to use them with their families or students at home. I have tried to make each quiz easy enough to allow youngsters to get a few correct especially at the lower age range. Even if children do not have the wide range of knowledge to answer all of the questions they can use the quiz as a fact gathering exercise by checking out the answers from the internet or other sources. I suggest the children try to answer each question without assistance for 3 points and then with help using research options (Alexa, Google etc.) for 1 bonus point. The answer sheet is equally important as I have tried to offer some wider background information about some of the topics. Going through the answer sheet is a valuable learning exercise. Doing each quiz as a family challenge may well be very entertaining (singles or pairs / with or without a quiz master?). With a quiz master there is no need to print each quiz. With teams, perhaps double points (2 points) for singles answering and one point for a shared answer. I hope you have some family fun… All the best … Ian Patterson.

This is a 20 picture quiz that includes cities from Europe. Each question offers a picture with a connection to each of the cities chosen. Along with each picture I have offered a number of facts to help identify the city. The clues are offered as a learning experience where the children can learn a little bit about the city in question whilst trying to identify each of the cities included in the challenge. The quiz can be tackled at three different levels. Firstly - 3 points would be awarded for a correct answer using only the written clues. Second - If the contestant is struggling they may be able to work out the answer by studying the anagrams offered at this stage. Answers given in response to the anagram would score 2 points. Third - For 1 point children can be offered the first letter that makes up the name of each city. On page 4 there is a map of Europe showing some of the cities in the quiz along with others that were not chosen. This quiz would be most suitable for children between the ages of 11 and 16. It may also be useful to Primary School pupils in Years 4, 5 and 6 with the help of an Atlas.

This resource targets students studying the Weimar Republic during the period 1918 to 1933. They are most likely to be involved in learning about History in Germany for GCSE examinations in the time period between the two World Wars. Specifically it is aimed at learning time order in this complicated and rapidly changing period of History. There are two main elements to this resource. It starts with a timeline presentation that can be taught as two introductory lessons. After this initial introduction the 48 revision cards can be used to create a wall display and then followed up with a series of revision games that help students to learn the correct order of events during the Weimar years in Germany. As the end of Key Stage 4 examinations get closer the revision cards will be very useful for individual, partner and group revision sessions.

Children at Home can learn about the time line of events during WW1. Teachers can offer this resource to children who are studying WW1. Younger students may need to watch alongside their parents. What is included … 2 Presentations, 4 Quiz Challenges and information pages. and how to use this resource: This resource can be used for students between the ages of 9 and 16 years. It contains 2 power point presentations that cover the first and second half of WW1 in a chronological continuum. Each presentation has 25 slides with detailed notes included below. The commentary is most suitable for 14 to 16 year old History students but it can be easily adapted for children who are 10 to 13 years of age. Both presentations are offered as thumbnail and note pages that can be printed and used as revision sheets for examination students who are studying WW1. Other pages on offer include two relatively easy quiz pages with 25 questions for all age groups and two picture quizzes with ten related images (The quizzes can be attempted** with or without** the fact sheets). Finally there is a page with 25 short writing projects that are offered as challenges for developing historical writing in preparation for examinations. How to Use the Power Point Presentations: Part 1 - Show as a brief introduction for various topics about WW1. The presentation can be concluded by an easy quiz (using the resource to find the answers). Testing from memory - Students can mark their own so that they can note facts and concepts that they did not learn during the presentation. The quiz pages can act as a script for the main discussion topics whilst the presentation is being given. The second presentation can be used in the same way. Individual slides can be used as lesson starters for initial discussion and then lead into writing challenges. I envisage this resource being used for perhaps up to 6 lessons with 9 to 12 year old children. Examination students might use this resource as a foundation for studying all aspects of WW1. The picture quizzes can be used as standalone challenges using the information sheets or as an internet challenge. Another option would be to use certain pages as Homework material. Target groups are … GCSE History and Key Stage 2 and 3 studies.
