This lesson investigates what happened at Dunkirk in 1940 and evaluates whether the evacuation was a miracle or a disaster. The main aim of this lesson is to look at the wording of sources to identify morale, bias, exaggeration, propaganda and distort and to assess reliability from this.
This download includes a fully editable powerpoint with all activities, instructions, clip links and worksheets/information sheets you need.
It is differentiated where possible with scaffolding and challenge options and is fully planned with plenty of activities for your students to complete including a starter, all clips and related tasks, source breakdown tasks (class, paired and individual), consolidation explanation questions and two plenaries.
Activities are planned to encourage thinking and discussion.
