School Trip Checklist
School Trip Checklist - editable Word document
This document goes through a step-by-step of how to organise a school trip. I have had personal experience of planning a school trip and would suggest this works particularly well for day trips. You will be able to tick off elements as you complete them.
Includes ideas about the following:
Location
Transport
Payment
Etc.

PEEL Classroom Posters
These posters are great for a classroom environment. PEEL (Point, Evidence, Explain, Link) is a key idea used in history and these will support students’ reflection of this in written work.
There are four posters which simply state each (PEEL) and use visually appealing fonts, colours and images as decoration.

'Super Work' Pastel Bunting
Use this ‘Super Work’ pastel bunting as a title for your display boards/walls. This bunting has been carefully created and is aesthetically pleasing to the eye.

Industrial Revolution SOW
This Scheme of Work (SOW) fits with the KS3 History National Curriculum. It outlines important lessons that should be covered across the teaching term and suggests possible learning outcomes. This SOW also provides teachers with initial ideas/frameworks for lesson activities and expands on this by citing the resources needed.
To further this, the SOW also makes significant reference to cross curricular links to the topic and the key history skills that could be focused on within each lesson.

Classroom 'Friend Bingo'
This is a fun resource to settle students into the new school year or term. It allows everyone to get to know each other better as the ‘Bingo’ aspect is interactive.
Students must walk around and talk in order to find members of the class that they can write down for each category on the bingo sheet. Ultimately, students will aim to get as many different names written down as possible. The first person to complete this will receive a prize (sweets, stationery, etc.)

This edition comes with icons behind the text which helps those who are visual learners or those of lower ability.
