This sheet provides a clear overview of all topics needed for Edexcel’s Germany 1918-39 Paper 3. Best enlarged onto A3 or given to students as an example of how to structure revision. This has worked particularly well for my lower ability students and provides other students a useful starting point for their revision.

This is a one page resource which acts as a revision tool for the Superpower Relations and Cold War topic. Students can easily see the whole topic on one sheet and use this to begin their revision and use the diagram as a checklist. Student feedback has suggested that more able students liked how the diagram acted as an effective starting point for revision whereas weaker students liked how the diagram made revision for the topic seem more manageable.

This is a single sheet revision resource, that when enlarged to A3, will provide your students with an overall view of every topic they need to revise for the main part of Crime and Punishment in a clearly organised format. I have used this with my lower ability students who like the idea that they can begin their revision using this sheet as their starting point. Please make sure you understand that this is a single sheet resource that hopefully you can preview here. Hopefully you can appreciate the amount of time that was spent producing this resource, hence the price I am asking. Hopefully this will be a resource that can last many years. I also have similar sheets for Nazi Germany, Elizabeth and the American West.

This is a very useful resource to help students structure their revision for an end of unit assessment or their final exam. It has been organised Chronologically but also provides students with the information to revise thematically. I would suggest enlarging to A3 if possible and students have found this a great starting point to their revision as it sets out all of the topics covered in the American West on one sheet. Please note that this is a single sheet resource, but due to the time it took to produce this, I hope this reflects the asking price for it. Hopefully it can last you many years.

Here are a series of maps which will be really useful for teaching about the Cold War. Each map has been created by myself from scratch and is fully editable using Power Point tools.

Map 3: Maps of Berlin by 1948 and then by 1949 Map 4: A map showing the location of Afghanistan Map 5: A map showing the location of Cuba Map 6: A map showing the location of Churchill’s imaginary ‘Iron Curtain’. Please note that the maps are the creation of RA Resources © 2024 and should only be used for personal reasons and should therefore not be used for commercial purposes.
