Germany GCSE History – Reichstag Fire This is one of many lessons that I have uploaded on the history of Germany for GCSE pupils. All of the lessons can be taught together, but each covers a topic so can also be picked up separately. For ease of locating, the title stem is the same: 'Germany GCSE History -'. This is a full PowerPoint lesson, ready to teach, and any relevant resources are also uploaded with it.

This is a lesson that I created for an Outstanding showcase of lessons - very active and based on persuasive techniques. I usually put my resources at the end of the PP, so you are likely to find them after the last slide.

A slide that can be used for lots of purposes: for all lessons on spoting persuasive techniques, for display, for literacy across the curriculum - to pass on to ther departments as a tutorial or simply for the pupils books.

This is a full scheme of work that consists of all lessons power points and resources - similar to the one that I've added for Richard III (if you want something less conventional). It&'s for the controlled assessment that compares a Shakespeare play with his Sonnets. The focus of the question is strong feelings of love.

Germany GCSE History – Ruhr Hyperinflation This is one of many lessons that I have uploaded on the history of Germany for GCSE pupils.

These are the first 18 lessons of a scheme of work that I created last year for DNA by Dennis Kelly. It is aimed at a year 9 class, as the idea is that I am starting to prepare them for GCSE Literature. Therefore, the scheme is a mix of analysis and playing with the text too. I've used a variety of ideas to teach it. All lessons are complete lessons in themselves but you may wish to adapt / cut apart and mix them up, especially if you want to use for GCSE. The remaining lessons will also be uploaded under the same heading

This is one of the homework booklets that we've created for pupils in school. The year and level is indicated in the title. It covers essential English skills.

OfSted Outstanding Literacy All lessons Starter: With a new shift in focus for the 2012 framework that means that teaching and learning can only be judged outstanding if literacy and numeracy are encorporated across the curriculum, I am making a daily starter / settler activity that can be incorporated into all lessons. These mini activities are examples of a literacy activity & there is a tutorial before each. These are going to be made daily, so I'll upload them é I hope they will help other schools to boost literacy teaching. This one is about extending vocabulary.

I have uploaded 20 lessons in this series in total - each with it's own resources where relevant. Each lesson Powerpoint can be taught as a standalone lesson, or used within the series. These are brand new lessons and they structure the reading of the novel, whilst analysing it. Designed for AQA Literacy specification. This lesson covers what foreshadowing is and how it operates in chapter 1

I've uploaded a series of lessons that can be taught together for the final outcome or, quite easily as standalone lessons. This particular lesson covers an intro to History.

Luckily, we will never be in the position again where I have to teach 2 specifications at the same time to the same class. However, this is the scheme that I created last year when this was the approach adopted by the Head. Although these lessons are aimed at both specs, the full scheme is more IGCSE skills and texts than the AQA. My AQA scheme will be uploaded as a separate entity. 2 of these texts, I've uploaded before but the whole scheme makes sense when uploaded together. The first lessons are uploaded separately.
