I am a History teacher in the North West, and head of Citizenship in my school. I have been teaching since 2007, in four secondary schools across the area. In between times, in 2012, I taught as a volunteer teacher in Ghana, with English, French and Maths classes (you can read about my adventures in my book, Teaching in the Sun, available on Amazon). All of my resources have been extensively tried and tested. I hope that you, like me, are able to use them for good and outstanding lessons.

This is a card sorting resource on the development of Britain’s rule from the 1750s to 1947. There is a differentiated resource for lower ability students.
Students are invited to sort the cards into categories:
a) violence/war b) peaceful protest c) political power / government. Lower ability students can look at what was violent / non-violent.
They then place the cards into chronological order, and can use the timeline to indicate where Britain’s rule was secure or weak. More able students can be challenged to decide how strong or weak each event showed British rule to be.
Students can then answer the following questions on British India:
1. What event showed that British power was at its strongest? Why?
2. What event showed that British power was at its weakest, before 1947? Why?
3. What do you suggest about British rule in India over the years? Think of rise and fall of power. Why do you think that this was?
This can lead to a class debate or piece of extended writing.
