The end of WW1

This lesson has been created for KS3 secondary history students and covers the End of WW1. This lesson has been created on Microsoft Powerpoint and has an optional accompanying Word Document for students to record their answers on. Additional resources have been created on Powerpoint and Teacher Notes & Answers have been added to the notes section of each relevant slide on the Powerpoint. This resource is a group activity. Students are engaged in a relay race against time and other groups to retrieve the information as to how and why the First World War ended in 1918. Students will identify events and turning points that resulted in victory for for the allies and more importantly, why Germany lost the war. This lesson includes exam technique (AQA 4 mark question) to consolidate learning and an optional 8 mark question which students can complete for homework. I really hope you enjoy teaching this lesson as much as I do! If you are able to leave a review once you have taught it, I would be really grateful.

Black history month lesson

(0)
A full lesson to share with your KS3 and KS4 students for Black History Month. This lesson has been created on Microsoft PowerPoint and is designed to be taught for an hour, however, the tasks can be adapted to speed up or slow down the lesson and some of the tasks included could be taught as stand alone activities. All accompanying information sheets/ worksheets have been provide and additional supportive student materialsfor the starter and plenary have been provided on the PowerPoint as hidden slides to help deliver the lesson quicker should you require. The lesson includes keywords & definitions, a brief overview of what Black History Month is and why we celebrate it, scaffolded teaching, information sheets to search and categorize key information. Students are then to use the information they have extracted to complete profile pages on significant figures in black history. I have provided single A4 information sheets on 4 key figures from varying periods of history in addition to blank profile pages (black and white to save on colour printing and provide students with more opportunities to get creative!) There is an AFL check point built into the lesson and to consolidate the learning students can attempt an exam style question which is great for practicing and developing point & evidence writing. The accompanying mark scheme to self-assess has also been included (this is currently styled as a 4 mark AQA history ‘describe’ question). Alternatively, this can easily be tweaked to meet the language and style of your own subject/exam board questions. I really hope your students enjoy this lesson for Black History Month. If you get the opportunity, please review! Looking for a Black History month quiz to share with your tutortime/students? Check out this one here.

Holocaust Challenging stereotypes - L2

(0)
This lesson has been created with KS3 secondary history students in mind and is the second lesson in my Holocaust unit of work. This lesson has been created on Microsoft Powerpoint and the accompanying student worksheets have been created on Microsoft Word and Powerpoint . Teacher Notes & Answers have been added to the notes section underneath each relevant slide on the Powerpoint. Please check these before delivering the lesson to your student. They offer excellent source analysis support for teachers new to the topic. This resource is Lesson 2 in my Holocaust scheme of work. It’s aim is to explore the ways in which the Nazi’s used propaganda and stereotyping to humiliate and discredit the Jewish race in German society. This is to help students begin to understand how the Nazis then were able to turn society against the Jewish people and other minority groups which then paved the way towards Holocaust and eventual mass murder. This lesson is very heavily focused on working on students source analysis and interpretation skills using antisemitic propaganda that was distributed by the Nazi party in German society in the 1930’s. This lesson includes suggested learning objectives and outcomes and has been designed to be taught over the course of one hour - although it may run over. The utmost care has been taken to ensure this resource has been created with the utmost respect to the victims of the holocaust and to ensure that students have the opportunity to connect and empathise to the human beings to whom the attrocities of the holocaust were committed.** There a no graphic images of corpses in this resource.** I really hope you enjoy teaching this lesson to your students as much as I do! If you are able to leave a review once you have taught it, I would be really grateful. Looking for more Holocaust resources?

Hitler and the Anschluss 1938

(0)
This lesson is designed for my current Y11 students starting AQA Paper 1 (Old Spec). It covers the content to the event in steps which studentscan work on either independently or in groups. The activity for this can be structured in a carousel if you wish. The event has been broken down in simple points as students can sometimes get a little confused with the names and agendas of people in Anschluss. Each step is accompanied by images to prompt memory. Quick AFL checkpoint in the form of a Pop Quiz is in there. The penultimate task in this lesson is for students to become familiar with the 10 mark question on Paper 1. Students are provided with the answer and have to figure out the exam technique behind it. What do they need to do and what do they not need to do. The question allows students to use prior knowledge of the Rhineland crisis and students then need to consider which event was more significant in causing ww2. Model answer & student scaffold are provided as part of the pack and all resources have been produced to an excellent standard. Please review!
