This is a 20 page revision information booklet that I use with my AQA History students. All of the information is accessible and covers the whole unit.
I have added the PDF version in case the publisher version does not open properly.
Enjoy!
This is a set of newly developed resources that I am using virtually over Google Classrooms for KS3 Year 9. The lessons are all fully resourced (all have worksheets that can be easily uploaded to Google Docs if you are using Google Classrooms) - there is no need for any text books to be used. The lessons are as follows:
What was the Cold War? big picture overview
Why was there so much mistrust between the superpowers? communism and capitalism
Why did the superpowers fall out? conferences
What was the first Cold War confrontation? Berlin Blockade/ Airlift
How dangerous was it to escape over the Berlin Wall? (missing the audio file as it will not load)
How close was nuclear war in 1962? The Cuban Missile Crisis
Key Marked Piece
Did the USA really land on the moon? The space race
Why did the USA fight a war in Vietnam?
Why did the USA lose the war in Vietnam?
Were there attempts made to reduce tensions? detente
Why did the Soviet Union Collapse?
Summary- make your own historical cartoon
VIP tests and sheets also included- similar to knowledge organisers.
I hope you enjoy this resource and find it easy to use virtually

2. Elizabeth and marriage. Take me out lesson- (you will need information on the men as I have lost the electronic copy- if you would like me to take a picture of the sheet I use then message through.)
3. Elizabeth's problem image. (can take 2 lessons)
4. Who was Mary Queen of Scots (can take 2 lessons if students are designing movie trailers)
5. What should Elizabeth do with Mary?
6. The Spanish Armada - why was it sent? what happened?
7. Conclusion lesson and resources

Use and enjoy as you wish.
