Medieval healers and hospitals. GCSE medicine through time.

Looking at the types of health care providers in the Medieval/ Middle Ages era. It then goes on to look at hospitals in particular the Hotel Dieu and St Bartholemew’s. Attack the source works really well as an activity but it takes a while due to all of the cutting and sticking. If the preview is out of sequence, blame TES. THe final download is fine.

Hi This is a simple game. Pick a category, answer the question and get that much prize money, if you get it right you pick the next category and value. I haven’t done true Jeopardy for any one familiar with the show, just questions and answers. It works really well with groups and buzzers. The slides are in colour and for some reason the preview doesn’t show them properly. It is all there though. I used somebody elses template from a medicine quiz and I thank them for making it as it saved me a lot of time. THe Q and A are all my own work. If you wish to share it please do, but please do so for free. Now with an instructions slide at the end.

Hi. This lesson looks at the changes to public health in the Industrial Revolution. It covers the work of Jenner, Pasteur, Nightingale, Chadwick and more. The lesson is differentiated for average through to top set and would just need more scaffolding for bottom set. If the preview is messed up, blame TES. The actual download will be fine.* It uses an information hunt and has a conclusion/judgement task included. I have spent a lot of time making this and choose to share it for free to benefit the students and other teachers. If you download this please also respect this by sharing it for free.

This lesson is focused on the new Reagan administration and the impact it had on the Soviet Union including the infamous Star Wars project. ***If the preview is out of synch it is a TES issue, the final download file is fine.****< Enjoy. I have used a few bits from other people and tried to refine them together with some of my own to make a lesson more focused on the new GCSE spec (Edexcel). My thanks to those contributors.
Detente and the SALT treaties. GCSE Cold War and Superpower relations.
azreal1983azreal1983

Detente and the SALT treaties. GCSE Cold War and Superpower relations.

(9)
This lesson looks at the causes of detente, SALT 1, the Helsinki Accords and SALT 2. It would ideally be followed up by a second lesson on the subject as this lesson gives an overview of the big events, but does not cover the smaller parts such as the space mission. It should tackle the issue of treaties being dry by using the group activity. **If the preview is out of sequence it is a TES issue, the actual download will be fine.*** I thank any and all contributors to this resource and as I have shared this resource for free ask that anybody else does so too.

The Cuban Missile Crisis. GCSE Cold War and Superpower relations.

(0)
***TES previews do not work properly, the slides appear out of order, the final download is fine*** This lesson looks at the events of the Cuban Missile Crisis. It is built to follow on from a study of The Bay of Pigs. The main tasks are the video with differentiated worksheet and the talking heads activity. Students will need to space out their heads to make room for the speech bubbles. It is intended for the Edexcel spec (Hodder book), but would easily adapt for others. I have made and shared this resource for free. If you modify and/or share it please do so too.

Consequences of the Berlin Wall. GCSE Cold war and Super power relation

(2)
A lesson looking at the construction of and the ramifications of the Berlin Wall. **Tes shows the slides out of sequence, but the actual download is fine** This lesson covers the Checkpoint standoff, Kennedy and his Berliner speech and a few other bits. For the domino plenary I get them to do it in pairs. First to finish gets a prize, mix them up, find a new partner and do it again faster. To differentiate the consequences print them on two colours. Give the simpler ones to low ability and both sets to middle and higher ability. I have made and shared this resource for free. If you take it and/or modify it please do so for free to.
William the Conqueror's consolidation of power in England. 1066-1070

William the Conqueror's consolidation of power in England. 1066-1070

(1)
**The actual download is in the correct order. Preview is out of sequence due to some issue with TES***. This lesson is intended for Year 7, but could be modified for older students. It is my take on 'je suis le roi'. Students read the cartoon, update the map and write about what happened. When it is done, they get the next cartoon etc. They should work in small groups 2-4 students per group. Students can then see the spread of Norman influence as on the map. WARNING it takes ages to make due to cutting out the tokens, but once you have made it you just top them up when needed every year. I would advise keeping tokens in packs (envelopes). I hope you enjoy it. Please remember that I have shared this for free, please do so too.

The Hungarian Uprising 1956: causes and events. Cold War and Superpower relations.

(0)
***The download is in correct sequence, but the TES site has a bug which means the preview only has issues**** This lesson looks at Hungary under Soviet rule from 1944 and how the secret speech from Khrushchev led to Imre Nagy and in turn the uprising. This was then crushed by the Soviets. I have used a couple of other Power Points plus my own work to build the content. I thank those who made some of those slides. This is a very content heavy topic so students will likely need the text books to help with the main task. The main task is a picture strip task. Students stick the strip into the margin and then write about the events adding evidence and explanation. I hope it is useful. If you use this resource please share it freely for the benefit of others.

Attacking the trenches of WW1. Design your defences game.

(0)
This lesson is intended for after a study of the weapons of World War One. Students will look at the main types of defences and what would counter them. Students will then plan their own section of trench with only a limited number of defences. This will force the more able to justify their choices. The game then involves a fun end where they see if they survive attack from their partners. Enjoy Please remember that I have chosen to share this resource for free to benefit the students.

It is 1066 and three men all stand with a claim to the throne of England. Who will rise to take Edward the Confessor's throne. Meet the three in this Rocky inspired lesson.
