This outstanding resource has been designed to help students studying the ‘Middle Passage’ as part of the transatlantic slave trade. The resource can easily be adapted for display purposes but it is designed to be used as a collaborative source investigation. It can also be used as a market place activity. This beautifully illustrated resource is a must have for anyone teaching this topic. The tasks and activities have been written to appeal to the full spectrum of ability and have been set up around the market place activity where the key slides in the PP are printed off and either pinned on the classroom walls or set out on the tables so that students move around and fill in their information on the summary sheet. Alternatively, the sources are supplied in a booklet format so that each table can investigate a heading before sharing what they have learnt with other groups and the rest of the class. This is a very proactive lesson designed to get students up, moving around, sharing and working collaboratively. I have provided additional differentiation by ‘ragging’ or grading the difficulty of the sources so that the learners can chose their level of challenge. When you purchase this resource you will receive a 18 slide presentation, which includes a snowballing starter, information slides for the market place activity and a plenary. The sources for the market place activity looks at the treatment of slaves and their conditions onboard the slave ship. I have also included a few links to relevant clips on the internet that have been carefully selected. In addition to the PP you will also be able to download a source booklet, a lesson plan and a source summary sheet. The aims and objectives for these resources are: Theme: The Transatlantic Slave Trade Know: What was the slave trade? Understand: How were slaves treated during the ‘Middle Passage’? Skills: Enquiry, Source Analysis and Team Work WILF – What Am I Looking For? Identify & describe: How the slave trade worked from Africa to America Explain: How were the slaves treated during the ‘The Middle Passage’? Analyse: How reliable is the evidence? If you like this resource then why not check out my other resources on this topic in my TES shop, where many have been bundled together to provide you with further savings. 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.

This outstanding resource has been designed to help students studying how the Industrial Revolution changed the Textile Industry between 1750 - 1900. It is suitable for a range of learners and includes some great ideas and strategies to try out with your students. The information for the market place activity on the on the new inventions which transformed the textile industry has been beautifully presented and carefully linked to the decline of the domestic system and the birth of factories and mills. The follow up activities look at how the new machines changed the way people worked and looks at some of their negative reactions. The resource includes a PowerPoint with aims, objectives, a snowballing starter and an introduction and activity which gets students to draw links between the population explosion and the increased demand for more textiles. The next five slides, which can be printed off on A4 or A3, contain information on the Flying Shuttle,The Spinning Jenny, The Water Frame, the Mule and the Power Loom. I have also produced a summary table for each table for the students to complete. This could be printed off or copied off the board, depending upon your photocopy budget. I usually get each table to feed back on one invention and then complete a class version on the board, depending upon the ability of the class. The next few slides include a link to a video clip and explain the impact of the new machines on peoples lives. This is followed up two source based questions and a link to the song 'Poverty Knock.' Where appropriate, I have provided differentiated activities. The aims and objectives for this lesson are: Theme: Why did Britain have an Industrial Revolution 1750 - 1900? Know: Why did Britain's Textile Industry change 1750 - 1900? Understand: How did each new invention contribute to the changes? Evaluate: What impact did these new machines have on peoples’ lives? WILF: What Am I Looking For? Identify and describe: Why did Britain's textile industry change 1750 - 1900? Explain: How did each new machine contribute to the changes taking place? Analyse: What impact did these new machines have on peoples’ lives? If you like this resource then why not check out my other resources on this topic in my TES shop.

When you purchase this resource you will be able to download an editable Microsoft Word document which includes a learning objective, instructions, questions, activities and fourteen key changes or inventions that need to be sorted into their correct chronological order. Once students have sorted the cards, thay can extend their understanding further by answering four key questions that get them to review the changes highlighted in their timeline. These focus on which invention was the most important, why cotton became more important than wool and how the new machines changed peoples lives. For further information, you can zoom in on the preview. The aims and objectives for this lesson are: Theme: Why did Britain have an industrial revolution 1750 - 1900?

This lesson resource has been designed to help students studying the changes to the textile industry 1750 - 1900. It can be used with the full spectrum of ability, but the text level of the sources would better suit lower middle to upper ability students. However, if you like this resource, I have also produced a PowerPoint and a card sort, which provide additional differentiation. These can be purchased separately or as a package under the same title . When you purchase this resource you will be able to download a three page worksheet. This beautifully illustrated resource includes an introduction, which explains why there was an increased demand for textiles in this period. The rest of the worksheet looks in turn at the the introduction of each new machine and explains why it was invented and the impact that it had on the textile industry. Each section is beautifully illustrated with images that can be easily photocopied in either colour or black and white. The worksheet concludes by looking at the impact of the new machines on the why people worked and the organisation of the textile industry. The activity section includes four questions. The first question aims to get students to explain the link between the population increase and the demand for more textiles. The second question is a table summary exercise, which focuses in turn on each of the new machines. The third and fourth questions are designed to get students to study one of three sources and draw conclusions to explain why some opposed the new machines and the new factory based system. I’ve also included a link in this resource description to a folk song so that students can contrast the sources on the domestic system with the factory system.
