This outstanding resource has been designed by experienced teachers to help provide stretch and challenge for students studying why the League of Nations failed to stop the Italian invasion of Abyssinia. The key pedagogy underpinning this strategy is that when we rank items, either statements, objects or images, we are required to make explicit the over- arching relationships by which we organise our knowledge and connect our learning.
It can be used as a starter, plenary, revision or assessment activity.
The resource includes nine diamond shaped cards which include a range of factors to explain why the League of Nations failed to stop the Italian invasion of Abyssinia. The document is provided in Microsoft Word so you can edit the resource if you wish to customise it further by changing any of the key factors that I have included. Once students have cut out the cards out they are set three tasks including:
1. Remove any reasons that you don’t think are important. Record and explain why you have removed them.
2. Arrange the remaining diamonds to show any links that you can find between the different reasons. Record and explain your reasons.
3. Make a smaller diamond shape using the four most important reasons to explain why the League of Nations failed to stop the Italian Invasion of Abyssinia. Record and explain the reasons for your choices.
At each stage students should be feeding back to their group or the class and explaining their choices. The discussion and explanation around the choices that they have made are critical in helping them develop their thinking skills as well as their understanding of the topic.
The aims and objectives for this lesson are:
Theme: Why did the League of Nations fail 1919 - 1939?
Know: What sanctions did the League of Nations impose on Italy?
Understand: Why did the League fail to stop the Italian invasion of Abyssinia?
Evaluate: Which factors were the most important?
WILF - What Am I Looking For?
Identify and describe: What sanctions did the League of Nations impose on Italy?
Explain: Why did the League fail to stop the Italian invasion?
Analyse: Which factors were the most important it causing the League to fail?

The worksheet includes thirteen carefully primary and secondary sources which span two pages of the worksheet and a third sheet with the tasks and activities. I usually print the two source sheets together on a single A3 sheet, but they can just as easily be printed off back to back. The PowerPoint includes the aims, objectives, differentiated outcomes, starters, additional activities, copies of the sources for display and a plenary. I have also provided two different styles of tables to be used with students to record their results. You can chose either one or both if you wish to provide an additional layer of differentiation.
