Hello, and welcome to my resource shop.
I aim to create original resources for KS3, GCSE and AS/A2.
I also aim to provide resources on the less obvious, mainstream topics and bring in elements of the LNF.
I have 20 years experience as a History teacher, and 15 years as HoD.
Have a look around and grab a bargain! 😄
Please leave an honest rating on any resources you may buy. 👍

A two lesson pack looking at:
Lesson 1 - the causes of the Wars of the Roses.
Comprehension task based on a cartoon strip.
Lesson 2 - the battles.
Pupils use a map showing the location of the main battles between 1455 and 1471 (and its key) to create a living graph from the Yorkist perspective. They also analyse the completed living graph with 4 comprehension questions.
Within both ppts you will find a pupil progress activity (one at the start of lesson 1, the other at the end of lesson 1/start of lesson 2) aimed at showing progression during lessons/unit of work.
There's also a reading research homework activity within the ppt - pupils are asked to select one battle and find five key/interesting facts. They must also evaluate the usefulness of their research media. This task is based on strands within the Literacy Framework.

This is a reworking of my original resource.
A simple task (at first) to consider whether or not one of Medieval Wales' most celebrated Prince deserved to be given the title "Great".

Worked well with my Year 7 class.
Hope you find it useful.

A detailed resource to develop pupil skill in using evidence (focusing on utility and reliability). Pupils sift through 7 sources (primary, contemporary and secondary) to work out what really happened to Llywelyn on the day he died.
Pupils then use their findings to write an account of what they think happened, and then refer to how reliable the sources they had were for the enquiry.
A popular resource with my classes.
