A set of linked resources and activities to help students improve their knowledge and understanding of a range of Black British Firsts. This features a range of 50 Black British firsts (the same as in linked resources).

There are two activities which involve matching people to their achievement. The first is a set of printable ‘cards’ which can be used for sorting or matching tasks (such as the matching pairs game) – each person is on a separate ‘card’ from their achievement (organised in sets of 10). The second is a set of ‘domino cards’ to provide a more supported matching challenge; each card has a person and an achievement that links to another person -so making a sequence of people and achievements.

Ancient Egypt: Developing chronological awareness- Power point
WiseArkResourcesWiseArkResources

Ancient Egypt: Developing chronological awareness- Power point

(0)
A resource designed specifically to help students improve their knowledge and understanding of Ancient Egypt, in particular with the ordering of events. To help with understanding the passage of time there is a power point presentation that shows the intervals between events. This has a range of selected events and is designed to convey a sense of the passage of time by having the transition between slides vary in length depending on how many years actually passed between events. Each slide has a date, event and appropriate illustration. (Each event slide is on show for five seconds and the whole presentation lasts for approximately five minutes). As a bonus there is also a ‘click through’ version of the slide show to enable the teacher to give additional information or discuss the event with students. The selection of events is not meant to be definitive (it’s a selection not a comprehensive timeline!) – this allows for an extra activity/challenge of students deciding what is missing/what could be left out.
