A clear and detailed storyboard, detailing the events of the BATTLE OF HASTINGS in 1066. There are two versions, one with dashes for the students to fill in, and one completely filled in (with all of the information) for SEN/EAL students. It is very well structured, and clear. If you liked this resource, please rate it :)

A clear, structured worksheet with some Economic, Political and Social reasons why the Romans invaded Britain. At the top of the sheet there’s space for defining ‘Economic’, ‘Political’ and ‘Social’, alongside images to help the visual learners remember those terms. Underneath that, are a selection of reasons why the Romans invaded Britain. All learners are to read through the various reasons and classify them (my students used different coloured highlighters to do that) according to whether it classified as an economic, political or social reason. High achievers then use the line underneath each point to explain/ justify their reasoning. Additionally, there is a recap sheet to be used the following lesson, to help the students remember the information they learned.

A clear worksheet (+ additional differentiated version for SEN/ EAL) for your students to write down the main reasons why the Anglo Saxons invaded Britain. There are 2 columns, I have my students write the points down in the first column and then draw a symbol/ picture in the second column to depict their explanation. For SEN or EAL, I give them the sheet with the writing bit filled in and they just need to draw something to depict that. (Both worksheets- the regular one as well as the differentiated one, are included in the same PDF).

A clear sheet that helps students with answering the essay question: "Britain changed to a large extent between the first and tenth centuries”. How far do you agree with this statement? Explain your answer. Coloured, and user friendly. It takes away the usual dread that comes with assessments and calms the students down. Especially useful for the low achievers and those in need of differentiation and/or some extra help.

A sheet for students to read an highlight the advantages and disadvantages of Motte and Bailey Castles.

An A4, clear, structured sheet that guides students how to go about writing a story ending. It is colorful yet not too colorful, making it attractive yet also easy to follow. My students find it really helpful, it is especially great for evidence of differentiation and can be used as a ‘help sheet’ for the SEN or Lower achievers.

Taboo English game. Students take turns to hold a card and get their peers to guess the word they have without saying any of the words on their card. It includes images for visual learners.

A clear worksheet (+ additional differentiated version for SEN/ EAL) for your students to write down the main ways that the Romans changed Britain. There are 2 columns, I have my students write the points down in the first column and then draw a symbol/ picture in the second column to depict their explanation. For SEN or EAL, I give them the sheet with the writing bit filled in and they just need to draw something to depict that. (Both worksheets- the regular one as well as the differentiated one, are included in the same PDF).

A ‘balderdash’ style game, where students each receive a small card where they need to write their own definition of what they think is meant by ‘Motte and Bailey’ prior to learning about it. The teacher takes in the cards, shuffles them and puts a card with the correct definition in the pile. Then she/he reads out the definitions and students vote for which they think is correct. If a student guesses the correct answer they get a point/ merit, and each time that their answer was voted they get one too. My students love this game!

Students are to read through the ‘factfile’ of Elizabeth I and then complete her ‘passport’ by cutting the sheets out and sticking them together and filling in the info. My students always enjoy seeing her signature, and it makes the history more ‘real’ to them.

Clear sheet for students to self/ peer assess or for teachers to fill in regarding a students performance in an assessment or task.

Diary entry task about the Battle of Hastings. Clear breakdown of what the task includes.

A motivational and appropriate quote that I discuss with my History students during our first lesson of the year together. It sets us in the right tone for learning and gets the students thinking practically. They stick it on their first page, as a reminder of what the main thing in life is. To make sure that they ‘make history’ on an individual level, whilst learning from the past! I hope you enjoy it!
