This is an assessment based on the butcher of the Somme debate.
The poster includes a variety of sources such as diaries, opinions, diagrams, statistics, and a video clip. The video source is freely available online. The accompanying grid prompts students to first determine whether Haig was a butcher, hero, or bungler and then provide evidence to support their stance. The second task requires students to evaluate the trustworthiness of each source and provide justifications for their assessments. Finally, the third task asks students to write a paragraph explaining their viewpoint and supporting it with specific details.
