This card sort is designed to give students an overview of the course. I have used this resource successfully with a range of ability groups. Lower Ability Card Sort uses different fonts to break down the crime, punishment, law enforcement method and context in each time period. Ideas: A Students to decide which time periods are which colour and to build a rough timeline. Within each time period, students should sort the cards into crimes, punishments and law enforcement methods. Students could pull out changes and continuities across the periods B Students to use it as a checklist. C Students to make links between different cards e.g. as a thinking quilt.

I created this powerpoint to deliver a walking talking mock - style session. There are examples of student responses for each Q as well as slides on structure etc and how to approach each Q. We didn’t have exam desks set up in the hall so I asked students to complete small tasks instead of writing out the whole Q, although could be used for a formal walking talking mock if these slides are ignored. Based on Edexcel 9-1 History
