This bundle is the complete series of lessons I have created for AQA GCSE Germany 1890-1945: Democracy and Dictatorship. As well as focusing on GCSE exam practice questions, the lessons apply the skills necessary to enable the students to achieve the highest grades. The lessons will allow students to demonstrate (AO1) knowledge and understanding of the key features and characteristics of the period studied from the Wall Street Crash and the transformation by Hitler of the Nazis into an electable force. They will study (AO2) second-order concepts such as change and continuity in the economic problems facing Germany and the causes and consequences of Hitler becoming Chancellor. The analysis and evaluation of sources (AO3) are used in for example The Night of the Long Knives lessons whilst substantiated judgements are made (AO4) on the limited opposition in Nazi Germany and the conversion into a totalitarian state. The lessons are as follows: L1: Kaiser Wilhelm II (free resource) L2 The Kaiser’s Government and Weltpolitik L3 The impact of World War 1 on Germany (free resource) L4 The Weimar Constitution and Political Parties L5 The Treaty of Versailles L6 Political Uprisings – the Spartacists and the Kapp Putsch (free resource) L7 The Ruhr Crisis and Hyperinflation L8 The Munich Beer Hall Putsch L9 Super Stresemann L10 The Golden Age of Stresemann L11 The Wall Street Crash L12 The rise of the Nazis and the transformation of the Nazi Party L13 How did Hitler become Chancellor?

These lessons go beyond the minimum requirements of the specification (e.g. studying more pressure groups, more elections, more minor parties and more prime ministers than required) and include: LIST OF MATERIALS IN THE FULL 125-LESSON BUNDLE Between 2 and 4 homeworks set per week; 16 assessment opportunities (8 in class, 8 as homework); An exam technique sheet; 8 substantial knowledge tests, each out of 100 marks; Further reading integrated (although you will need to purchase the relevant books yourself). The core textbook for students to use is UK Government and Politics for AS/A-Level, 5th ed. by Philip Lynch, Paul Fairclough and Toby Cooper. I recommend buying enough for all students. On rare occasions, activities will reference the Pearson textbook. If you wish to do these activities, this book is Edexcel GCSE Politics AS and A-Level Student Book and eBook - worth snapping up a copy of this also. Further reading homeworks make use of the following books (all easily found on Amazon and not expensive): UK Politics Annual Update 2020, UK Politics Annual Update 2019, UK Government & Politics Annual Update 2018, UK Government & Politics Annual Update 2017, Isabel Hardman’s Why We Get the Wrong Politicians and Steve Richards’ The Prime Ministers: Reflections on Leadership from Wilson to May.
