This resource was created for a ‘turbo’ revision session that lasted an hour. There is an explain question on the expansion of slavery with a detailed but simplified overview of three key reasons why this happened. There is also a 9 mark (write an organised summary) question on the railways and two plans for questions on homesteaders. There is a detailed summary of the Homesteaders section to aid with these plans. Pupils found these very useful and were able to access the exam questions well.

These resources cover all five chapters of the USA 1918-1941 IGCSE Pearson Edexcel course. Each PPT has multiple quiz cards testing key knowledge in all 5 chapters. Each slide in the PPT has a questions and answers section which can be cut out, stuck back to back, then laminated. I keep mine in pouches on a display for my GCSE students to use in class whenever needed.

Same format as my Crime and Punishment knowledge tests. Simply stick the questions and answers back to back and then laminate. These are displayed on a 'GCSE Hub' display that my pupils can access whenever they need to. Influenced by research that says the best way to retain knowledge is to keep reviewing previous content in low-stakes knowledge tests. Used daily by pupils, especially those in my tutor who study history. Plains Indians, Mormons, Homesteaders, Early settlers, cowboys and law and order covered.

This enquiry can take 2-3 lessons to complete. Pupils work in small groups using the information sheets provided to come to their own conclusion. There is advice on how to approach the research, structure their notes and how to justify their conclusion. Pupils have to choose which historians they agree with, if they agree with either. I get pupils to move to an area of the room to make their judgement - this is shown on the PPT. Highly engaging lesson and builds the skills required on any young historian. You can add other sources to the lesson.

Various resources to help teach Stuart Britain 1602-1688. This is mainly focused at A-Level students. Particular focus is given to the historiography.

This is the first lesson of the new OCR B Crime and Punishment course. Used alongside the OCR book this helps pupils gain an overview of Medieval society. The main task is to fill in 'clock sheet' - each section of the clock is a different section of society (religion, Kings, people, land, food and farming, war and rebellion, tools and technology, homes and possessions, life and leisure).

This is the second lesson on the OCR B Crime and Punishment course. Pupils use the OCR book and the PPT guides their analysis. Pupils pretend to be a Coroner with their 'coroner investigation sheet'. Pupils then analyse the various crimes and the causes of those crimes between 1250-1500.

This resource helps pupils understand who enforced the law between 125-1500. Pupils engage with an active learning task where they circulate the room and collect research on various law enforcers (the people, sheriff, Chief Constable, Parish Constable, coroner, watchmen). After this task pupils use the OCR Crime and Punishment book to make notes on the various courts.

These 5 quizzes cover content for section 5 of the Elizabethan England course - Explorers. Introducing quizzes like these has had a dramatic impact on our department's results as they improve the recall of subject knowledge significantly. These are based on research that shows frequent low-stakes testing significantly improves a pupil's subject knowledge. I have these displayed in my classroom so pupils can use them when they finish work early and they are also put on VLE for parents to quiz pupils at home.

These three lessons are to help the teaching of the new GCSE 1-9 Elizabethan England 1580-1603 OCR SHP course. They are tailored to the OCR book and contain various tasks and stimulus to aid the delivery of the course.

The final pleanry allows pupils to demonstrate why there wasnt more opposition to the Nazi Party in the 1930s.
