The material world worksheet

<p>The aim of this lesson is to understand how the British Government prepared for the Second World War and why it introduced rationing.</p> <p>The lesson begins by deciding which foods were rationed and why. Students will also have to work out which foods also became unavailable and the reasons for this.</p> <p>There has always been an assumption that as foods were rationed and restricted, people on the Home Front therefore struggled to make ends meet.</p> <p>Students are given information on all the goods rationed and compare this to the recommended weekly healthy intake per person today. As they will soon find out, rationing did not always mean everyone suffered as a result.</p> <p>Students will also be required to analyse the effectiveness of some posters at the time, encouraging people to grow their own food and well as a comprehension task and a challenging thinking quilt on clothes rationing.</p> <p>The plenary uses flashcards to question their understanding of the lesson.</p> <p>The lesson comes complete with embedded videos and a lesson plan on how to use the activities.</p> <p>It is enquiry based with a key question using a lightbulb posed at the start of the lesson and revisited throughout to show the progress of learning.</p> <p>The resource includes retrieval practice activities, suggested teaching strategies and differentiated materials, and comes in PowerPoint format if there is a wish to adapt and change.</p>

<p>This lesson sets out to explains how Hitler set Germany on the road to the Second World War in 5 steps.</p> <p>Students are challenged to find out how and why was he able to defy the Treaty of Versailles so easily with little or no consequences (shown through a causal spider’s web).</p> <p>Students analyse video footage and a number of sources, using the COP technique (modelled for student understanding) which has proved invaluable for evaluating sources at GCSE.</p> <p>A final chronological recap of the events and evaluation of the most and least important of the events that led to war, will give students an in depth understanding of why World War II started.</p> <p>This lesson is ideal as preparation for GCSE if you are embedding source skills or teaching the interwar years or WWII at Key stage 4.</p> <p>It is enquiry based with a key question using a lightbulb posed at the start of the lesson and revisited throughout to show the progress of learning.</p> <p>The resource includes retrieval practice activities, suggested teaching strategies and differentiated materials and comes in PowerPoint format if there is a wish to adapt and change.</p>

<p>Guess the Material activity</p> <p>Can be done as a science lesson or through continuous provision.</p>

<p>This lesson is one of a series of lessons on the Second World War aimed primarily at students in KS3. Students are asked to consider why the allies wanted revenge on their enemies in the Pacific. The lesson begins with an engaging picture starter of a sinking ship at Pearl Harbour which gains student curiosity. The lesson then introduces students to a variety of source materials including video clip, pictures and written sources to gain knowledge about the start of the war in the Pacific, the Japanese enemy, and the treatment of allied prisoners of war at the hands of the Japanese. The lesson ends with students producing a piece of their own wartime propaganda encouraging support for the war against the Japanese in the Pacific.</p>

<p>The aim of this lesson is to decide if Winston Churchill deserves the title as the ‘Greatest Briton’?</p> <p>When the BBC conducted a poll entitled ‘Who is the Greatest Briton?’ Winston Churchill came out on top, besting some strong competition.</p> <p>This lesson therefore challenges this assumption and evaluates the four areas the BBC cites as his fortitude; for being the greatest British Gentleman, for inspiring the nation, for symbolising the spirit and strength of Britain and for his comforting speeches.</p> <p>The evidence for this task is through radio broadcasts, video footage and source analysis (using a battery rating) from which students will conclude and either concur or not with the poll.</p> <p>A splat the bubble plenary will test their new assumptions.</p> <p>This lesson is ideal as preparation for GCSE if you are embedding source skills or teaching the interwar years or the Second World War at Key stage 4.</p> <p>It is enquiry based with a key question using a lightbulb posed at the start of the lesson and revisited at the end to show the progress of learning.</p> <p>The resource includes retrieval practice activities, suggested teaching strategies and differentiated materials and comes in PowerPoint format if there is a wish to adapt and change.</p>

<p>The aim of this lesson is to understand how the British Government prepared for World War II and if they were successful in doing so.</p> <p>The lesson begins by analysing a source and making inferences about the precautions to be taken in times of war.</p> <p>Furthermore students will also have to decide the Government’s priorities in the Second World War by making judgements as to whether they are low or high, from ideas such as rationing to aid raids or war work to conscription.</p> <p>They will then complete some research focusing on four areas: warning people of air attacks, the Homeguard, the use of gas masks and the blackout.</p> <p>Students will plot what the government did or didn’t do on a grid and then after analysing and processing the evidence, justify their conclusions using a colour coding evaluation table as well as completing an extended written task.</p> <p>The plenary requires students to answer differentiated questions to check their understanding.</p> <p>It is enquiry based with a key question using a lightbulb posed at the start of the lesson and revisited throughout to show the progress of learning.</p> <p>The resource includes retrieval practice activities, suggested teaching strategies and differentiated materials, and comes in PowerPoint format if there is a wish to adapt and change.</p>

<p>The aim of this lesson is to understand why children were evacuated to the countryside in the Second World War.</p> <p>However, it also questions the success of evacuation through government propaganda, audio records of evacuees and from written sources of evidence.</p> <p>Students are led through the evacuation process, which on the surface looks amazingly planned and executed by the British Government.</p> <p>But, using primary evidence of the time, they realise how the Government failed to prioritise the needs of the children over the need to evacuate large numbers.</p> <p>Students will also learn how other vulnerable groups in society were also evacuated without due consideration of their needs.</p> <p>By the end of the lesson the students will evaluate the biggest problems faced by the children during World War II and learn some sad facts about the reality of war on the Home Front.</p> <p>The lesson is enquiry based with a key question using a lightbulb posed at the start of the lesson and revisited at the end to show the progress of learning.</p> <p>The resource includes retrieval practice activities, suggested teaching strategies and differentiated materials and comes in PowerPoint format if there is a wish to adapt and change.</p>
