My students love using these as a revision tool and also as an in class activity. Each of the eight hand-shaped cards has a key topic about the Collapse of Peace on it and each finger has a name/date/quote/statistic/fact on. Students learn precise supporting material which really boosts examination success. These aides can be reversed so students can test each other by reading the answers first and guessing the topic also. Once cut out and laminated they make a very handy and mobile revision aide and knowledge on them is extremely precise and exact.

I take great pride in these posters and know how much better they make my classroom look and so I hope you find them useful too! I cover my classroom in them each year and often get cited as the best looking classroom in the school. They cover a range of topics and periods and have deliberately been designed to stimulate thought and discussion in the History classroom. Many of the posters have a quote with either a picture or fact which contradicts it. Others are designed to be hard hitting and in some cases provoke outrage. Using these posters will improve the texture of your teaching by ensuring students are constantly immersed in a rich learning atmosphere/environment. Also, as I create new ones I constantly update this pack. Just print them off in A3 colour and laminate et voila! I have included them as individual documents so they’re easier to print but have also included the original PPT in which I created them in case you want to add any of your own within the original fonts etc.

Includes detailed 4 page set of notes, starter activity, question pack, and exit ticket plenary.

This incredibly detailed set of notes will boost your students’ subject knowledge and is teeming with evidence. The pack also provides a 15 question activity for students as well as a bonus task for those who require an additional challenge.

In this lesson students are issued an exceptionally detailed pack of information and are required to create evidence based storyboard using the template provided which causes them to focus on the five key reasons. A plenary is also included which asks for them to develop two of these points using ‘on the other hand.’ I hope you enjoy this lesson as much as my students do.

As a child growing up during the Gulf Wars and someone who has worked in the Middle East I am extremely proud of this lesson. Download this and you will find an extremely detailed set of notes along with a starter and plenary activity to bring this topic to life.

I’ve always enjoyed this lesson and its one that really helps students develop an expert grasp of a difficult series of events. Students read through background knowledge before completing a card sort of 21 precise pieces of evidence. I then encourage students to make links between these factors and to identify which pieces of evidence they find the most compelling. I worked in the Middle East when creating and delivering this lesson so it carries real meaning for me and I hope you can see how that has come across in the level of detail and precision. Above all though I hope your students enjoy this as much as mine did.

I created this lesson when I taught in the Middle East and so I’m very proud of the level of detail in it. Students work their way through the background information before attempting a 30 piece hexagonal card sort. The cards are colour coded and the students need to explain what they have in common as well as to make links between factors. This activity was one of my best lessons of the year and always leads to thoughtful and precise historical argument. I really hope you enjoy teaching this as much as I do!

I’ve always found Maoism fascinating and I created this lesson when I worked at an international school in China. As such the level of detail in the notes is of really high quality and its a lesson which my students always found really enjoyable. The class work through the notes and use it to create a newspaper from the perspective of either the Communists or the Nationalists. The ‘Red Globe’ proforma included in the lesson pack allows for students to refine their arguments and carefully select only the most relevant evidence in order to formulate an answer to the key question. I really hope your students get as much from this lesson as mine do.

This is one of my go-to lessons when I want to impress. Students are given information packs on the lead candidates and create their own short election speech. I always encourage students to make posters, rosettes, and bring in jackets and ties where possible before finishing with a class vote. I hope you enjoy this lesson as much as I always do.

Boost your teaching with this 4-part lesson plan. It will help refine existing skills, ensure pace to every lesson, and enable you to take into account a variety of different needs in order to facilitate accelerated learning in your classroom. Yes, you too will have a cunning plan!
