This is an assembly PPT I gave on tolerance for others. It delved into the death of Sophie Lancaster Since Sophie's death on August 24th, 2007, following the horrific attack on her and her partner Rob in Stubbeylee Park, Bacup, Lancashire, we had lots of kind offers of support and donations. Sophie and Rob dressed in their unique way, expressing their individuality as creative artistic people.

These questions cover the key topics 1.1 to 3.3 of the new Edexcel GCSE on the American West. Teachers can insert these questions into your lesson slides. They can print them off and use them as starter, recap or plenary activities. They can amend them to meet the needs of their students. I choose the PowerPoint format because you can print different numbers of slides to a page and you can include them in your work.

Teachers can insert these questions into your lesson slides. They can print them off and use them as starter, recap or plenary activities. Students would annotate around the date. Comments on the 5Ws & H. I choose the PowerPoint format because you can print different numbers of slides to a page and you can include them in your work.

This is useful in revising the subjects of the key topics. Students can RAG each part of the topic. All 9 slides could be printed on a large A3 sheet I would print 3 slides to a page and leave the right-hand side for notes for when they RAG the topics a second time. There are also samples for my paid resources. These contain around 30% of the paid versions.

This is a useful revision resource for the new American West GCSE Unit from Edexcel and other exam boards. Basically, each unit has a central title and it is up to the opponent/teammate/student to identify 8 key events, people, themes etc that link to it. You can decide on how much time you want to give them. There are more relevant cards and there are even some cards on exam questions from Edexcel. You (or your team) have 30 seconds to name eight historical events, people places etc. linked to a certain theme. After eight rounds you add up the score to decide the winner. 1-32 Players or 2-4 Teams Single player - Narrative Revision: This is a form of revision with which all eight of the Historical 8 must be used to create a story or narrative which meets the criteria of the title. This will aid their recall, as stories are easier to remember than facts alone. This can be a game as well as the partner can judge the effectiveness of the story and award points.

This worksheet combines Film Studies and History to show how the position of a camera can affect the viewer's understanding and interpretation of a source.

Basic question and answer sheet which uses the first 30-40 minutes of the film and leaves the last 20 minutes for students to design their own symbol!

These are basic identification worksheets that use promotional images from the film and link them to a grid. Different versions have the actual names of the characters and some do not.

This is a worksheet that goes with the Lisa the Iconoclast episode from season 7. SEE other resources for Night at the Museum 2 and National Treasure 2 resources

Print of the Key Terms using the PDFs or the Presentations three or six to a page and have the students match them or mix and combine them to formulate a comparative answer to an exam question.

Basic Handout for students to use with Source Questions on American West. Additional revision materials are included. What can you learn from Source A about the first transcontinental railroad across the USA? Describing what is there – 1-2 Infer meaning and use the source – 3-4 (Total for Question 1 = 4 marks) You have 12 lines to write on, which is half a page.

This is a pack of PowerPoints, PDFs and Documents which explain the game to teachers and students. There are handouts and presentations for you to use. This competition often engages the students and once the game is taught it can be brought back without the resources as the students just "know" the game. The reader must read, but they can read as little and as much as they like. At any point then can call out “Pass to .......”, so that another member of their team can continue reading. The aim for the team is to reach the predetermined stop point. When they reach that they must call out “Shoot” to score a goal.

Photograph your Exam Hall This is a simple revision technique that links the exam hall space with key information for the exam. Simply take a photo of the exam hall, insert it into a PowerPoint and then add key facts or terms into shapes or word boxes. When a student sits there exam they can look up and recall those terms. @teacherstevo

Lesson can be used for all sorts - I have used it with Titanic in recent years. The five R's is a method used to break down and examine the historical significance of an event or person. Many historians have different variations of this method. The five R's we will use are: Remembered, revealed, remarked, resonates and resulted. The order does not necessarily matter, neither the need to do all five of them.

You can use the cube as a learning, selection and revision tool. Why not put simple facts on each side? Why not write out key analytical terms to use in your essay? How about putting six individuals that link to one theme?

There are two different word searches. I have put four onto one page, which makes it easy to slice down the middle.
