Ok Mr President, Let's Talk - Political Cartoon Analysis
Students will analyse Leslie Gilbert Illingworth’s iconic cartoon by responding to five key questions. Students are encouraged to make their notes as annotations around the image.
Gallipoli - Film Viewing Notes Worksheet
This worksheet is designed to encourage students to be active viewers of Peter Weir’s film, “Gallipoli”. Students are encouraged to record evidence from the film of the reasons given for enlisting, conditions at Gallipoli and the experience of war. The three large notes sections cater for students preferred note taking style: some may make dot point notes while others may prefer to mind-map. The five post-viewing questions guide students to consider Weir’s main message and intention, as well as a broader reflection on films as a secondary source.
Matching Pairs - Cuban Missile Crisis Image Activity
Have students revise some of the key events leading up to the Cuban Missile Crisis by matching the event and date to the corresponding iconic image. This quick revision activity is an ideal lesson starter and the worksheet becomes a useful visual cue / memory jogger for students notebooks.
Cuban Missile Crisis - End of Unit Reflection Worksheet
This worksheet guides students to reflect on the information they have learned about the Cuban Missile Crisis to form their own opinion on the question of ‘who blinked’? Students will record notes and consider the contribution each country made towards a resolution, Dean Rusk’s famous quote, and an American and Russian text giving differing versions about who ‘won’. Students will finish with a final evaluation of the ‘crisis’.
