BBC Teach - Class Clips - Black people in Britain during the Atlantic slave trade era

(0)
Written to support the BBC Teach Olusoga extract BBC Teach > Secondary Resources > KS3 / GCSE History > Migration Search - BBC Teach - Class Clips - Black people in Britain during the Atlantic slave trade era In this short film, historian David Olusoga looks at the lives of Black people in Britain in the 1600s and 1700s. He looks at portraits in Ham House in Surrey, which feature images of young Black men and women as part of family groups of aristocrats. Olusoga talks to Professor James Walvin, who suggests that often these figures were invented and were part of the exoticism associated with international trade and enslavement. Walvin describes Black people in the UK as the ‘flotsam and jetsam’ of the slave trade, individuals who found themselves in the UK. Most were in domestic service. Some were sailors in transit in and out of the ports. By the late 18th century the ideas of the French Revolution were spreading and some Black people were starting to have a political impact on British society. These included Robert Wedderburn, who argued passionately for the emancipation of Black slaves and poor whites.

This resource provides students with a 'TOPIC ON A PAGE’ summary for the component unit Key topic 1: EDEXCEL GCSE HISTORY. TOPIC 1: THE EARLY SETTLEMENT OF THE WEST, C1835 - 1862 This is a one page resource They fully cover the syllabus content for each topic and can be used by students and teachers to: a) consolidate knowledge and understanding to encourage student mastery (embedding academic language and concepts)after students have completed a topic in class or as a homework task, helping them identify areas of strengths and weaknesses b) as a quick starter activity to review prior learning or weeks/months later as a spaced retrieval practice task. I regularly take sections from the placemats and use them to support spiralled learning. c) to encourage relevant exam responses - specifically targeting the themes of explaining the cause of illness, methods of prevention, treatments, care of the sick, public health, important individuals and factors effecting change. d) the question squares can be completed and then cut up into cards to form KAGAN Quiz/Quiz Trade Question and Answer Cards e) as a useful revision aid before the final exam. (Many of my Year 11 students rely on these sheets in the final weeks and days of revision and have commented that they have helped make factual recall of the huge volume of the syllabus content more achievable. The resource includes prompt pictures to appeal to visual learners and can be used as a standalone resource or in conjunction with the Edexcel Pearson Revision Guide, where all of the answers can be found. This resource can also be used in conjunction with the topic placemats that I have produced to support students in lessons. The first box contains the same summary picture for the whole topic. In particular, I have successfully used the TOPIC ON A PAGE summaries with the ‘EXAM TECHNIQUE’ side of the placemats so when students are given exam questions, they can quickly find relevant supporting knowledge to use in a response. I have used this resource successfully with students targeted Levels 4 - 9. It could be easily adapted for students working on or below L3. The ‘fill in the gaps’ prompts can be removed for higher ability students.

Drama-documentary series telling the story of the American West and its people Ep1 - Custer’s last Stand -Was Custer’s Last Stand, pitting 366 men against 2,000 braves, nothing more than a suicide mission - or was there method to his madness? The common preconceptions of this iconic battle are stripped away as new research shows that, against all odds, Custer was close to pulling off a remarkable victory. And his actions, far from foolish, were based on a brutally simple and far-from-glorious plan Ep2 - Billy The Kid - This episode focused on Billy The Kid - whether he really deserved his infamy as a ‘badman’ and whether he should be posthumously granted a Pardon. The general consensus of considered opinion is that he should be granted this Pardon Ep3 - The Gunfight at The O.K. Corral -In 1881 Virgil Earp, marshal of Tombstone, suspects Billy Clanton and the McLaury brothers of stealing cattle and, backed up by his brothers Wyatt and Morgan and ‘Doc’ Holliday, challenges them to surrender near the OK corral. In the following thirty second shoot-out the suspected and unarmed thieves are shot in the back, leading to the Earps standing trial for murder - though they are exonerated by the judge, who also happens to be a relation. This retelling, along with commentaries, is a far darker version of the story in which the Earps are usually represented as the unequivocally good guys
