This lesson has been designed primarily for A Level students studying Lord Liverpool’s ministry, but can also be used at GCSE. This resource focuses on the first half of Lord Liverpool’s ministry, when the government faced huge economic problems caused by the Industrial Revolution, the Corn Laws and the fall out from end of the war with France. When teaching this topic, it is crucial to focus on the price of bread as this later links with Peel’s repeal of the Corn Laws at the height of Chartism when the rest of Europe fell into revolution in 1848. It is also important to focus on how these protesters were controlled or (policed) as this links into other reforms.
This lesson looks at Luddism, the Spa field Riots, the March of the Blanketeers, the Pentrich Rising, The Peterloo Massacre, the Cato Street Conspiracy and the Queen Caroline Affair. At the end of each section, there is a separate slide on both the local and national government response to the protesters. It is important to some syllabuses to differentiate between the two. At the bottom of each relevant slide is a continuum for students to evaluate both the threat level posed by the protesters and the government response. At the end of the PowerPoint, I have also included a table for students to use to help summarise what they have learnt, this is particularly useful at GCSE.
When you purchase this resources you will be able to download a PowerPoint with 36 slides on Protesters against Lord Liverpool’s government from 1815 - 1821. The PowerPoint includes aims, objectives, activities, information slides, diagrams, primary and secondary sources to help students evaluate the threat level posed by the protesters and the response of both local and nation government. For more information, please see the detailed preview.
The aims and objectives for these resources are as follows:
Theme: Protest and Reform 1815 - 1834
Know: Who Protested and why from 1815 - 1821?
Understand: How did the government respond to these protesters on a local and national level?
Evaluate: How much of a threat did each group of protesters pose?
Skills: Cause, Consequence & Significance
WILF – What Am I Looking For?
Identify & describe: Who protested and why from 1815 - 1821?
Explain: How did the government respond on a local and national level?
Analyse: How much of a threat did each group of protesters pose?

This outstanding lesson, which has been fine tune in the classroom by experienced teachers, is designed to help students understand the problems facing Charles I in 1625 and why he decided to rule without Parliament.
Once students have worked their way through the introduction, they are presented with a number of problems facing Charles I ranging from religious, financial, foreign relations, the growth of Parliament and his beliefs in the Divine Rights of Kings. Once they have reviewed, categorize and prioritized these problems, students are then asked to produce a speech suggesting how Charles I could solve his problems and then peer assess each others speeches. This could be turned into a competition. In the final plenary activity, students are presented with Charles I’s decision to rule without Parliament and asked to assess whether it would help to solve his problems in the long term?
This lesson is suitable for the full range of ability. I have built a number of different tasks and activities around these different exercises so that you can chose a suitable flight path through the topic. So, for example, students can use to produce their summary diagram of Charles I’s problems or color code the exercise book sized version that I have included at the end of the PP. I have also differentiated the problem slides so that you have a foundation and core version. Please see the detailed preview for further information, but I have included everything that you would need to produce a fun and engaging lesson with a strong literacy focus.
When you purchase this lesson, you will be able to download a nineteen slide PowerPoint which includes aims, objectives, differentiated outcomes, starters, plenaries, information slides, tasks, activities and templates to help students

These resources look at the origins of anti-Semitism in Europe and how it evolved into the Final Solution. The key focus is on events in Russia, France and Germany, but is important to point out to your students that it was evident throughout Europe and the USA at this time.
The resources that have been bundled together have all been field tested in the classroom and are amongst our most popular downloads from the History Academy where we aim to produce resources for the price of a good cup of coffee. If you would like to stay up to date then you can follow our pages on Facebook, Instagram and Your Tube.
If you are new to teaching or studying this topic then its important to understand that anti-Semitism still exists and that the need to find scapegoats or someone to blame when things go wrong is one of the more nastier aspects of human nature and that falls to each generation to how this in check through education. The old biblical quote ‘Evil is when a few good men decide to do nothing’, is very relevant to studying this topic.
The modern version of anti-Semitism that we in Europe at this time grew out of events in Russia. The country was struggling politically, economically and socially so the Russian Tsar’s tried to redirect the Russian peoples attention onto blaming or 'scape goating ’ the Jews. This led to attacks on the Russian Jews which in turn led their mass migration into Europe and the USA. The arrival of these refugees stirred up latent anti-Semtism which made it harder for the existing Jewish communities and turn both anti-Semitism and Zionism into political movements in Europe. These movements were fueled by the political, social, economic and military crisis that grew out of German Unification 1871, The First World War 1914 - 1918, the Treaty of Versailles and the the creation of the Weimar Republic in 1919.
These events are covered in the resources that cover Russia, France and Germany 1880 to 1920. The booklet the 'Nazi attack on the Jews 1919 to 1945, cover the rise of the Nazi Party and the impact of the Great Depression and the Second World War 1939 - 1945.
When teaching your students about anti-Semitism do not forget that Facism or Nazism was not limited to Germany. The SS drew their recruits from all across Europe. Anti-Semitism was not a ‘German’ problem, it was a European and American problem based upon the prevailing racism of the time. My Dutch grandmother always drew a distinction between the ‘German Army’ or the ‘Wehrmacht’ and the SS. She remembered seeing a Dutch member of the SS shoot an old lady who was trying to pass food and water to Dutch Jews who were being deported in the cattle cars.

This resource should appeal to a range of abilities and learning styles. It shouldn’t take more than 10 to 12 minutes for a middle ability class to cut out the cards and sort them.
If you like this resource then why not check out my other resources on this topic in my TES shop. You can also follow ‘The History Academy’ on Twitter, Google Plus, YouTube and Facebook for the latest updates or even to get in touch and chat about how you have used this resource or to ask questions. We aim to produce cheap and affordable resources for either the price of a good cup of coffee or a happy meal so that you can spend more time doing the things that you want.
Anyway, have fun and stay in touch via social media for the latest updates.
Kind Regards
Roy
