A version of the amazing board game ‘Codenames’. If you haven’t played the game before see the video here with rules on how to play - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQVHkl8oQEU&t=134s - it’s very simple, fun and addictive. You’ll find yourself playing as well!
106 key terms, people, events and statistics that cover the course from 1918-1945.
All board pieces are well designed and ready to be used after printing and cutting.
Print on card and you have a really great revision game that is endlessly fun but also a very strong revision/knowledge recall activity.
A double lesson could disappear without even realising in all the fun!
Enjoy!
A series of 10 "History Bookmarks".

10 topics
Ideologies
Yalta & Potsdam
Soviet Expansion
Truman Doctrine & Marshall Plan
Berlin Blockade
NATO, Warsaw Pact, Peaceful co-existence
Hungarian Uprising
Berlin Wall
