Hello, and welcome to my resource shop. I aim to create original resources for KS3, GCSE and AS/A2. I also aim to provide resources on the less obvious, mainstream topics and bring in elements of the LNF. I have 20 years experience as a History teacher, and 15 years as HoD. Have a look around and grab a bargain! 😄 Please leave an honest rating on any resources you may buy. 👍

WJEC GCSE Depression Unit (for Depression, War and Recovery) New Specification (Wales)

A revised version of my previous Depression, War and Recovery resources, catering for the requirements of the new specification (first exam in summer 2019). Two key questions here include: 1 What caused the Great Depression? (Competition from abroad, lack of investment, free trade, Wall Street Crash etc.) 2 How did people cope with the challenges of the 1930s? (Dole, Means Test, Hunger Marches, Special Areas Act, radio and cinema, new industries, contrast between old and new industry areas etc.) All 5 exam questions are covered at least once in the resources. All have reference to success criteria/structure strips to aid pupils understanding of the requirements. DIRT improvement codes included too. The actual structure strips will need to be purchased as an addition to this resource. All images are, as far as I’m aware, from google images (free to use). Those images that I’m aware are not, have been deleted - ready for you to insert the relevant picture.

Takeaway History Homework: Generic version for GCSE Yr10

Takeaway History Homework: Generic version for GCSE Yr10

(0)
This is a generic version of a GCSE Year 10 Takeaway History Homework menu. I have seen many excellent topic specific examples (e.g. Tudors or Great War etc.), but this can be used as a generic one for most GCSE Year 10 papers, and will therefore reduce photocopying costs etc. Your exam board will probably ask different questions in the MAINS section, but tis should be easily adaptable. I have also included a QR code sheet for specific rules or worksheets required for specific homework tasks found on the menu. Pupils will need to download a free QR reader onto their phones (if they have compatible ones) from the app store to scan the codes and access these worksheets. The Friars Rating refers to the name of my school, so you can easily adapt the word document and input your own image etc. Enjoy!

Here’s a generic Takeaway History Homework Menu for any Grade, e.g. 7th (you just need to edit the first side).

Students will need a free QR reader from the app store, email to themselves the sent document, print and off they go! The Friars Rating refers to the name of my school, so it should be easily adaptable if you have your own ideas for rating the difficulty of various tasks. Enjoy!
