UAE Social Studies | Historical Overview of the UAE | 1 of 28

(1)
1 Lesson from a series of 28 lessons on UAE Social Studies (History). Each lesson contained keywords and a wide range of activities, with a focus on developing skills that students can use in their regular lessons too. A key focus is obviously on Historical skills, but also Geographic, Business as well as general skills of research, debate and presentation. Several lessons have been inspired by lectures given at the NYU Abu Dhabi by experts in their fields. The lessons begin with the formation of the Arabian landmass and end with the Arabs on Mars! Fairly comprehensive history. All lessons have been made with cultural sensitivities in mind. The lessons are: Historical Overview of the UAE Jebel Faya The Magan People Bronze Age Trade Wadi Suq and Umm Al Na The Iron Age Pre-Islamic Arabia The Prophet Muhammad and the arrival of Islam Battle of Dibba 632CE Mecca and Madina Khalid ibn al-Walid The Portuguese and the Persian Gulf The Islamic Era & Hormuz Bedouin Traditions Pirate Coast & Trucial States The Pearl Trade Diary of a Dhow Driver Qasr Al Hosn Emirati Homes and Architecture Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan Founding of the UAE 1971 Famous Emiratis Famous Ex-Pats UAE The Global Crossroads The Dubai Miracle Sovereign Wealth Funds UAE Space Program Wolsey Academy, a non-profit resource provider, directs all profits to various charities, including refugee support, youth sports, educational programs, and carbon capture, achieving a carbon-negative status.

Becket - Medieval Church (1/3 Wolsey Academy)

(1)
Henry II & Becket. A mini 3 lesson SOW looking at the church, Henry II and Becket’s murder. The module excellently introduces the idea of church v crown and provides the contextual knowledge needed for later study of the English reformation and other ‘power’ issues the English monarchy faces. Works well as a stand alone SOW but is also integrated into the free to play History game world at Wolsey Academy (check it out if you haven’t already!) Each lesson contains a literacy & numeracy starter, teacher narrative context pages (chance for you to do some storytelling !) plenaries and a range of active learning episodes. EAL and literacy support mats included with each lesson. The 3 lessons, along with the main lesson activities, are as follows: Church & Crown (graphic based church mind map discussions/source question/leaflet productions/Consult the Codex) Henry II (Timeline questions/round room source activity/Henry poster activity/Consult the Codex) Becket (chronology card sort/consult the codex/descriptive writing activity/cartoon strips) Hope it helps. Remember – works best when the students are playing the (free!) Becket game and completing the codex at the same time (perfect ongoing homework task or ict room lesson).

First World War - Extended Reading - Blood and Iron

(1)
An extract from Katja Hoyer’s excellent ‘Blood and Iron’. It is the chapter which provides a ‘summary of the First World War’ and takes the conflict up until the battles of Verdun and the Somme. There are 8 comprehension questions and has been used successfully with Year 9 students to get them to engage with extended reading and history scholarship. I used it as an introduction to the topic but it could equally fit as a homework or a recap task at the end of the unit. Hope it helps.

1066 3. Battle of Hastings Source Analysis - Norman Invasion (with Online Learning World)

(1)
1066 and the aftermath of conquest - featuring a unique immersive interactive Learning World (free to play!). The Learning World feeds directly into the in class lesson activities and can be used as an ongoing homework project – students can complete the free codex booklet as they go to consolidate learning. It is a very comprehensive SOW that covers the Norman conquest and its impact on English society. Each and every lesson has been made with enough differentiation, activity variety, cross-curricular support and progress checks that they could be used comfortably ‘out of the box’ in an observation lesson. Care has also been taken to make sure the skills complement each other across the SOW and build up to progress in exam writing ability, source analysis and soft skill development. I’m quite proud of it – if I may say so! The first two lessons and the Learning World Codex are free to download (some of the slides are not editable in these free versions) but the remaining lessons are for sale and are fully editable. From my experience it created a huge ‘buzz’ about learning in the classroom and I even had kids in other classes asking to use it. So soon the whole department were using it and at KS3 parent’s evening it was all the parents talked about – many of them had also played through the Learning World. Note: The Learning World is a ‘beta’ version – I am currently looking for someone to upgrade the artwork to make a few things look more ‘Normany’. But I guarantee the pupils will love it.
