Slavery - set of 10 lessons

A full set of 10 lessons covering the topic of slavery:

L1: Intro & the Trade Triangle
L2: Sugar & the Slave Trade - including how Britain benefited from the slave trade
L3: The Middle Passage - includes a short assessment
L4: Slave Auctions
L5/6: The Life of a Slave - large focus on analysing sources in groups
L7: Slave Resistance & the Underground Railroad
L8: The Songs of Slaves - students share a slave song that they researched at home, before writing their own!
L9/10: The Abolition of Slavery - includes an end of topic assessment.

A variety of activities have been included within these lessons to maximise engagement and cater for differing learning styles. Examples of activities include - sketch notes, talk4writing, code breaking, song-writing, poster-making and plenty of opportunities to work on source analysis and skills vital for GCSE. Challenge activities (in pink bubbles) have also been included in each lesson.

Used with a higher-ability Year 9 class (KS3), but can easily be adapted to fit other ages and abilities.
Some parts, i.e. information, have been taken from other resources, but most activities are my own.

Please rate my resources! Thank you and I hope your students enjoy these lessons as much as mine did :)
