This lesson can be used to introduce, embed or revise the key skills required to excel in Paper 2 to Year 10 and 11. The example questions are focused on America for Section A and China for Section B, though the principles of the Paper 2 exam technique will be useful to any school doing the Edexcel History IGCSE. A handy lesson which can be reused again and again to embed those core skills for Paper 2 success! Fully adaptable as a Powerpoint presentation for those who want to tweak and adapt to the needs of their class!

Duration of lesson

Between 1-2 hrs for students who are new to or still developing their Paper 2 technique. You may wish to get students to apply the tips and structure guidance in the masterclass to some practice exam questions, in which case it will naturally take longer. This is a lesson you can revisit again and again for revision of Paper 2
