This resource I have used with my Y11 GCSE class to teach them about the Cold War. The PP work along side the Cold War booklet that I have on sale. (It is also included in this sale as well) You will need to use a textbook for information for some of these lessons. I use the edexcel GCSE international relation text book- but any can be used. All of the lessons follow a very similar structure and their is a lot of exam practice in the lessons.

Iron Curtain and secret speeches 4. Truman Doctrine, Marshall Plan, Satellite States and Cominform 5. The Berlin Blockade 6. The Arms Race and the Space Race 7. The Hungarian uprising 8. The Berlin Wall 9. The Cuban Missile Crisis 10. Czechslovakia 11. The Afghanistan War and Detente 12. Ronald Reagan 13. Gorbachex 14. The End of the Soviet Union Enjoy and use as you wish!
