This is the end of unit assessment for my fantastic places SoW. It is set up like a GCSE paper but designed for KS3 students. It includes a differentiated version, source booklet and mark scheme. This can be used and adapted to make your own similar assessments. A really useful resource.

This resource is designed to be used with the Fantastic places SoW (in my shop), but it can be adapted to other SoW or to other fantastic places! As the students work through the unit they complete the passport to sum up what they have learned and add the information to the booklet. The passport also contains seven h/w tasks to be used throughout the unit.

This is a powerpoint presentation that can be used to stimulate debate and allow the students to explore major world issues and topics. There are 51 different topics here and these cover popular debating topics (animal rights, immigrants, democracy) and more obscure topics (about junk food and curfews!) Really useful starter, plenary, tutor time activity, drama activity or in a debating club.

This lesson is to help the students to plan their revision by doing a twist on the idea of a post mortem. While a post mortem is after the event, the pre-mortem does the same thing but before the event (or exam). So instead of thinking about why they failed, they will think about why they might fail and try to put into place a plan to prevent that happening! A useful and thought provoking lesson.

UPDATE - I have now included a powerpoint to guide the students through filling in the Transition Passport This is a useful and fun welcome booklet aimed at students who are moving from Primary to Secondary School. It contains a number of activities designed to help students to settle into a new school and get to know their class mates. This booklet is also useful for: -Tutor group activities in form time. -PSHE lessons. -Getting to know you activities. -Summer school -Breakfast club -Homework activities

This well resourced and well explained assembly looks at the history of fire works night, how it is celebrated today and why we celebrate it today. It also looks at the firework code, the dangers of fireworks and how be considerate and how to stay safe. It also has a true story to bring home the point that fireworks are not toys. I have included teachers notes to help to explain the slides. If you like this assembly please leave a review.

The assembly introduces the students to Red Nose Day -What it is -When it takes place -Why it started -Who it is helping -How the students can help The assembly can be updated for Sports Relief or for Children in need. If you like this assembly please leave a review.

A really fun lesson to introduce students to the idea of historical anachronisms (wrong time or wrong place in history). It uses both drawings and phots to demonstrate examples of anachronisms and asks the students to use their understanding and empathy to create their own stories full of anachronisms. A fun and useful lesson,

This is a Loop revision activity for Nazi Germany. It works on the same principle as flash cards, but the key words on one side don’t match the definition on the other side. In order to complete the Loop they need to find the student who has the key word that matches their definition (read the instructions below). It is a really fun activity that I mainly use for revision but can be used as a starter, a plenary or a fun activity. Instructions for use: 1 - Download and Print off the sheets. 2 - Cut around the outside edge of all the cards. 3 - Fold over the cards in the middle and glue them so on one side you have key words and on the other side you have definitions. 4 - Laminate the sheets (optional) 5 - Cut out the individual cards. 6 - Give out ALL the cards (at least one per person) 7 - Choose a random student to read out their definition, the rest of the class listen and whoever has the correct key word SHOUT IT OUT! 8 - This second student then flips over their card and reads aloud their definition. 9 - You keep going until you complete the loop and get back to the first student TIP 1 - To make it more effective and more competitive you should time each successful loop and post the times. Get the students to compete to try to beat their past times and other classes times. TIP 2 - Want to make it more difficult? Make the students swap cards every time someone makes a mistake or every time someone calls out. That way they will follow the rules and be forced to learn all the cards.

This assembly looks at the problem of Fake News in today’s society and the role it has played in several major world events since 2016, up to the present day (including Brexit, Trump, Wikileaks, Climate change denial etc.) The assembly covers what fake news is, the history of fake news, where it comes from, how it spreads and why it matters. It also features a quiz where the students will get the chance to see if they can spot the fake news stories out of ten unlikely sounding stories. Finally the assembly links fake news to gossip and rumours and gives tips as to how to spot fake news (both online and in the classroom). This is a fun but comprehensive assembly.

This is an outstanding lesson (this lesson has been praised by an LEA inspector, SLT, an AST and it has been highlighted in an Ofsted report). It uses a variety of different activities including a scavenger hunt, a diamond nine and teamwork. The lesson gets the pupils to investigate nine causes for WW1 (from Alliances to Sandwiches!) and the pupils need to find links between the causes and prioritise them. It is a fun lesson but also an informative and chanllenging lesson.

But many of the words can fit into multiple groups so they need to be careful. **I have included an answer sheet to make it easier for the teacher! ** As a bonus I have also included a blank template so students/teachers can make their own connections. This could also be used for other topics/subjects. It can also be used for KS3/4 or 5. If you like this resource please rate and review it!

This is an outstanding assembly about the future and the choices students will have to make to get ahead of the competition. This is a perfect assembly for student building up to their exams. The assembly gets them to think like employers and ask them who they would choose when faced with three applicants and ten different areas. For each area (such as punctuality, references, experience, appearance etc.) the students are presented with three options and they have to pick the one they think would make the best impression. The point being these are all situations they may well be faced with in the future and they need to make the right choices to get ahead. This assembly also includes a video (which is optional based on how much time you have) as well as a powerful message. This assembly was delivered to year 11 and year 13 but would also be suitable for KS3. The assmbly should take about 15 to 20 min to deliver (less if you don’t show the video clip).
