• A Literacy/Numeracy/Think settler question
• A context slide to allow for some (valuable) direct instruction
• A range of resources which include the likes of categorisation tasks, source questions and writing activities with model answers (focus on flexible PEEKA paragraphs).
• An online recap quiz
• Each lesson also includes a scholarship and further reading page to really engage the higher-level students.

Lessons in the series:

1. WW1 Recap
2. The State of Germany in 1918
3. The German Revolution 1918
4. Paris Peace Conference 1919 – Motives Overview
5. Wilson’s 14 Points

Also ideal for KS3 and other GCSE studies when considering the TofV – the Cambridge spec asks for a lot more depth on this topic that Edexcel seem to – so can easily be diluted a little for Edexcel, or used to push higher level classes.
