I have taken some resources here and made them suitable for online learning. You will need to convert them to the appropriate format. They can also be used for classroom learning as, when and if we ever return to normal. Two lessons here, although only one document to work through. The PPT is focused on Lesson 1, which mainly focuses on the events of the Spanish Civil War itself. It has a cross curricular link with Art and Music and there is a Theory of Knowledge style question as the plenary. Lesson 2 is the second half of the document. It focuses on German and Italian involvement in the conflict. Links to YouTube videos in the notes section of the PPT

THIS WAS DESIGNED FOR SUMMER 2022 This is some source based activities building towards planning the 12 mark essay. Summer 2022 CIE History Paper 2 is on Soviet Control of Eastern Europe, so this is based on the November 2017 questions. Easily editable, and compatable with online, in class or blended learning. I would recommend using this with future cohorts as prep for paper 2. For future papers you could just edit the sources on past papers and keep the tasks the same.

Just a basic resource with some easy start of DP1 tasks to get started on the IA. PPT is very word heavy as its taken from the course docs.
