The purpose of this lesson is for pupils to be introduce to the origins of the 'Black #Power Movement' through a case study of Malcolm X. Pupils will begin by viewing a video of the only meeting between MLK and X - this leads into good discussion about why this was so significant as both had the same aims but opposing ways of achieving them. Pupils then conduct a short literacy relay activity to introduce the life and different identities of Malcolm X. Childhood: Malcolm Little. 1920s He was known as Detroit Red in the early 1940s. He took the name of Malcolm X in 1952. Finally changed his name to El-Hajj Malik el-Shabazz in 1964. Pupils then split into groups to study into one aspect of his life (Computer or laptops are suggested but of not available I have included lots of information about Malcolm's life). Pupils then consolidate their learning into a paragraph which the teacher can then use to create a revision document about Malcolm's life. Further advice can be found in the description of the presentation. All videos are embedded (Links provided).

This lesson is cantered around the various bombing raids conducted by the US in Vietnam. Pupils will access and develop this information though exam style techniques. the lesson begins with a short introduction from a documentary to set the scene of, ‘Operation Rolling Thunder’. students will use two interpretations to decide upon the main difference in views regarding this (support sheets included for less able) . I have also included a students friendly mark scheme for self /peer assessment. students will then work in groups of three to complete a worksheet categorizing the successes and failures of: 1. Operation rolling thunder. 2. Operation Cedar Falls 3. Operation Ranch hand. Students will then be provided with a choice of questions with an accompanying student friendly mark scheme to plan a 16 Mark answer which can then be completed for Homework. the lesson finishes with a judgment line activity where students can verbalize their overall judgments regarding the success of these ‘Search and Destroy’ Operations. You will require the Pearson Edexcel textbook for a section of this lesson.

This lesson is focused upon the changed implemented under Nixon, namely, The Nixon Doctrine & Vietnamisation. No textbook is required I have included all resources / WAGOLS / differentiated sheets / video clips etc … Lesson begins with a recap of Johnson leaving office and Nixon’s approached to the War. students study each approach to then complete a starter sheet and reflect upon the impact each one may have on the War (Positive & Negative). students are then introduced to the Nixon Doctrine where they will watch a video clip (embedded) also more video links provided in the description - students are then enabled to to explain how this may affect the war and public opinions of the war. Students are introduced to Vietnamisation though various sources and a definition (clip included to watch from YouTube). students then engage in a discussion based activity to argue how different people may interpret the process of Vietnamisation (North Vietnamese General - US General - South Vietnamese Politician - Us citizen). The rest of the lesson is based around exam practice and technique i have included sources/ interpretations / structure support / differentiated source / interpretation evaluation sheets for less able & WAGOLS for ALL of the following questions: 1. How useful are sources A and B for an enquiry into… 2. What is the main difference between the views of interpretation 1 and 2. 3. Suggest one reason why interpretations 1 and 2 give different views about the extent to which Vietnamisation was a success. WAGOLS are evaluated to show student how and where marks have been gained. further advice can be found in the description of the presentation / easily enough for more than one or two lessons.

This lesson is designed to inform students about the TET offensive in order to enable them to explain why it was a significant turning point in the War leading to US public opposition. Students then will study different interpretations of the TET to then explain why they interpret it differently. Hook starter: A Selection of images for students to study upon entrance to class encouraging them to reflect upon how they would feel if they were seeing these images on TV. Students watch a video clip (Embedded) and are supplied with contextual knowledge via the PEEP SHEET if required. Students are encouraged to explain the significance of the TET and why it led to increased public opposition. Students then apply their knowledge to an exam style question (Why do interpretations one and two have different opinions about the success of the TET). WAGOL is then provided as students peer assess. Lesson ends with a rounding up of students opinions about why the TET was a turning point. easily enough to cover more than one lesson. Further instructions / video clips are included within the description of the presentation.

the purpose of this lesson is to focus upon the reasons for the failure of Vietnamisation and how this led to the US eventually fully withdrawing troops from Vietnam for good. the first half of this lesson is focus around student led group work. Students will complete a series of tasks designed to: 1. Identify the reasons for the failure of Vietnamisation. 2. Focus upon categorizing these reasons. 3. forming a judgment about the most significant reason. students watch a consolidation video (embedded). Students will then have acquired enough knowledge to complete the worksheet provided. Exam Preparation: students will then be provided with an exam style question from paper 3. "How far do you agree with interpretation 1/2 about.." Students are to use this completed work sheet for support but I have also provided a 'Peep sheet' for less able learners. No textbook required for this lesson. Please see my shop for a complete Scheme of Learning about the Vietnam War.

Students have to draw a diagram/ cartoon/ flow chart to describe what they have understood from reading the text.h different degrees of detail, complex vocabulary or even on different topics. Monkey 3: Key words Lead reader reads out the highlighted words students add these to their pictures. Monkey 4: Students explain the story to their partner. Monkey 5: one students is selected to read out to the class – whilst students follow along with the actual story on the board. _ if they do it mostly accurately they can get a prize.
