Students take on the roles of individuals living in a German town in the 1930's, shortly after the Wall Street Crash. Give each student a person and ask them to fill in the accompanying worksheet based on the information provided on their card. Ask all students to walk around the room, exchanging information about their character and asking each other the question; "how did the depression impact you?". Ask all students to feedback their findings.

The aim of this activity is for students to find out about some of the most successful and daring pilots of the First World War. This resource contains 9 individual factfiles containing information about 9 different World War One flying aces from different countries including the Red Baron Von Richthofen along with British, French and American counterparts. Each factfile is individually designed with a couple of "shorter" ones for the purpose of differentiation. Students could go around the room individually or in pairs and try to fill in the grid. Alternatively, you could perform a "marketplace" activity.

The resource contains - A powerpoint which includes a starter task which asks students to imagine a playground scenario as an analogy for international relations in the 1930's. It then details the countries and territories taken over by Nazi Germany and references Neville Chamberlain. There are also links to video clips within the powerpoint. The source sheet contains four sources and the accompanying grid asks students to analyse each source and decide whether it is positive or negative about appeasement. The resource comes with a complete lesson plan and a mini knowledge check plenary card.

Each of the two activities can take anywhere between 20 minutes and 50 minutes depending on how much explanation and teacher input you wish to make.
