The aim of this resource is explain why the USA introduced a policy of isolationism from 1919 to 1939. It includes both the PowerPoint and worksheet, which can be purchased separately and used independently if you prefer. The learning objectives are as follows: Know: What was the US Policy of isolationism from 1919 – 1941 Understand: Why did the USA follow a policy of isolationism? Analyse: What impact did this policy have on both domestic and international relations? What Am I Looking For? Identify and Describe: the US policy of isolationism and its effects Explain: why the USA introduced isolationism and its effects Analyse: What were the consequences of the US policy of isolationism and come to a judgement on which was the most significant? The starter is a snowballing activity, instructions included. The first part of the presentation then looks at the impact of the First World War and the Treaty of Versailles in the US decision not to sign it or it or join the League of Nations. This is then backed up with a consolidation exercise of a past paper question with a pupil mark scheme which can be easily adapted for peer and self assessment. The next part of the presentation then looks at 6 key consequences of the US policy of isolationism by looking in outline at economic isolationism, immigration controls, Prohibition, the 'Red Scare', Great Depression and the causes of the Second World War. The plenary activity focuses on a thinking skills review triangle, which aims to get students to decide which consequence is the most significant. I have also included a homework activity and some notes with the slides. These resources really well along side each other. The teacher can structure the learning so that they can pause for mini plenaries whilst students consolidate their learning using the task and activities in the worksheet. The PowerPoint extends and supports all students, but the worksheet is designed to structure the learning for foundation and core.

This outstanding activity is designed to help students review / assess who benefitted from the US economic boom in the 1920s by reviewing a series of character cards either in pairs or groups. Once students have decided upon how far they benefitted they are then expected to either write the name of the character or cut out and stick their card onto the living graph / continumm that I have provided in the activity. In terms of printing off the resources, I would be tempted to print the Continuum graph on A3, whilst I would print the character cards onto six slides per page so that they will fit on. This is a brilliant lesson for which I have been graded as 'outstanding' with on two separate occasions. Why not check out some of my other resources on the 1920s? The learning objective are as follows: Theme: Who benefitted from the economic boom in the during the 1920s? Know: Who were the winners and losers? Understand: How far peoples success determined by their race, gender or class? Analyse: how prosperous was the USA was during the 1920s WILF – What am I Looking For? Identify / describe: Who benefitted from the boom in the 1920s? Explain: Why did certain groups benefit whilst others did not? Analyse: make an overall judgement on how far everyone shared in the prosperity in the 1920s? If you like this resource then why not check out my other resources on this topic in my TES shop.

This unit is designed to allow students to investigate how William consolidated his control of Britain after the Norman invasion. It starts by looking at the 'Harrying of the North' by William and how he ruthlessness wiped out all opposition to his rule. The second unit looks at how he rewarded his supporters and tightened his control by introducing the Feudal System. Whilst studying this unit it is important to emphases the importance of doing 'homage' and taking the 'oath of allegiance' as William placed considerable importance on this aspect. His key justification for the Norman invasion was his claim that King Harold was an oath breaker and that his victory was a vindication of the just by God. The fourth unit looks at the Domesday Book and how land and wealth was distributed. Please make sure you point how to your students how much land and wealth was given to the Church as the Pope had supported his invasion. The final two units look at the roles played by different types of castles in helping William consulate his control and finishes off with an assessment based around students writing a formal letter to their local Lord suggesting why a Square Keep Castle would be better than a Motte & Bailey Castle. This resource is best used alongside the Heinemann History series which is referred to in the scheme of work. However, for an extra £10 you can download all my lesson resources, aims, objectives, differentiated outcomes, literacy resources etc. that support this scheme of work, just search for How did William Keep Control Scheme of Work with lesson resources.

This unit is designed to allow students to investigate the Norman invasion and build upon the source skills that students began to develop in the introductory module. The first three units looks at why the Romans, Saxons, Vikings and the Normans have invaded Britain. From a geographical point of view Britain has always been a rich country because of our temperate climate. This allows farmers to produce up to three crops per year, unlike our European counterparts. This makes Britain a rich prize for any War Lord. It is important to stress that British society was multicultural by 1066 as emphased by the place names activity. Please note that for an extra £10 you can download all my lesson resources that support this scheme as well as the scheme itself by searching for Norman Conquest Scheme of work with lesson resources. This scheme of work works well along side the following text books: Heinemann Medieval Realms (Foundation & Core) and Chris Culpin’s outstanding text book, The Norman Conquest.

These outstanding resources work really well as a follow up to my other resource son the Roman Army. They look at the reasons why the Emperor decided to build a wall separating Britons from the barbarians as well as how it was designed and built. There is also a section on everyday life on the wall including toilets and bath houses which can be set as a homework. The tasks and activities are designed for levels of ability and include DART strategies for SEN as well as questions and answers for the more able. The last activity is a word search which can easily be copied to another document and printed off for homework. If you have purchased this resource in the past, I have recently uploaded a new PowerPoint to accompany the main worksheet. Both resources include information, historical sources, tasks and activities. However, the PowerPoint also includes aims, objectives, differentiated outcomes, starters and plenaries. The aims of the first lesson are: Know: How Hadrian’s Wall was built and designed? Understand: Why the Romans built Hadrian’s Wall? Evaluate: How effective were Hadrian Wall’s defences? Skills: Source Analysis, Cause, Consequence & Collaboration WILF – What Am I Looking For? Can You Describe: Hadrian Wall’s defences? Can You Explain: Why the Romans built Hadrian’s Wall? Can You Evaluate: How effective were Hadrian Wall’s defences? Whilst the aims of the much shorter second lesson, which could be set as a homework are: Theme: The Roman Empire Know: What was everyday life like for a soldier on Hadrian’s Wall? Understand: How the soldiers kept themselves clean? Evaluate: How comfortable were the lives of Roman soldiers?
