This is an assessment book for students studying AQA History: Germany 1890-1945. For each of the 6 Question types there are exemplar answers with commentary (from AQA), tips on how to structure the response, and 2x practice questions for each question type, with the mark scheme below each question (making marking easy as the teacher can highlight/underline the appropriate comments) and then space for additional teacher comments.
I have found these booklets so helpful as all of their practice questions are in one place, so it’s easy for students to see my comments on their first attempt of this question to then take this feedback on board when writing this again.
All of the appropriate sources are in the booklet, so this is ready to be printed and used.
AQA GCSE History Assessment - Conflict and Tension 1918-1939
An assessment booklet that can be printed into a folded booklet. You must have a copy of the green Oxford AQA GCSE textbook as it refers to questions in that textbook.
There is space for students to write answers, for teacher feedback, and also instructions on how to structure each answer. For each question, there is also a sample answer from AQA for students to see, and there is a knowledge checklist at the front for the whole course.
This has worked really well, especially for a class who need more ‘structure’. For marking, it’s much easier for me to take in than the exercise books too. I have now made them for each of the units that I teach.
FYI: There are 2 documents - this is for page numbers purposes (I didn’t want page 1 to be the front cover!)
There is also another document title 'assessment questions weaker) included in this resource which includes sentence starters for students who need a little more support
