Lessons included in scheme of work: 1 of 6 - What was life in Africa like? 2 of 6 - The Middle Passage 3 of 6 - Slave auctions and life on the plantations 4 of 6 - Resistance to slave trade 5 of 6 - The abolition of the slave trade 6 of 6 - The Legacy of the slave trade Enquiry question: What was the experience of those enslaved by the Transatlantic slave trade? All lesson PowerPoints, work sheets and information sheets provided. Information has been written for students with a reading age of 12. The scheme of work is designed for students in year 8 and slots neatly between schemes of work on the British Empire and the Industrial Revolution. This scheme of work satisfies the National Curriculum’s need for ’* at least one study of a significant society or issue in world history and its interconnections with other world developments*.’ I have put a lot of thought and effort into providing an human experience led scheme of work that looks at the individual struggles of those who were enslaved as well as the international reasons for the slave trades existence.

A series of A5 revision guides I’ve created for Edexcel Crime and Punishment. Four books in total. Each book focuses on a different era. Medieval c.1000 - c.1500 Early Modern c.1500 - c.1700 3. Industrial Revolution c.1700 - c.1900 Modern c.1900 - c.2000 Each book contains the era’s approach to crime, law enforcement and punishment. It also carefully explains why elements are new and which have continued from earlier time periods. Each section of work has mini tasks to go with it in the booklet and has time period specific exam questions at the back of the booklet. These booklets are perfect for revision, catch up when students have been absent from the classroom for a long period of time or even homework.

I have created a series of flash cards set out as follows: Border colours to cards: Purple = Overview of topic (why did crime / law enforcement change in this era) Green = Crimes in this time period Blue = Law enforcement in this time period Red = Punishment in this time period Yellow = Case study in this time period Black = Whitechapel Case study. Each card is laid out as follows: Time period Name of factor / event Description of the event Specific facts for factor / event I have created these cards for my current year 10 and 11s and I’ve had a lot of positive feedback from them. We have used them for revision, to prepare for GCSE practice questions, for starter and plenary activity and for peer led questioning. The cards just about fit into most modern school blazer front pockets, so many of my students have taken to keeping them on their person at all times. The colour coded borders have made it easy to compare factors across time periods, such as - how has poaching developed as a crime 1000-1900.

Lessons included in scheme of work: Why did people believe in witches? Did the Civil War create more witches? How important was Matthew Hopkins? Case Study: The Pendle Witches 5. Why did people stop believing in withes? Enquiry question: Why were so many people accused of witchcraft in the 17th century All lesson PowerPoints, work sheets and information sheets provided. Information has been written for students with a reading age of 12. This scheme of work has been designed for a year 8 class that covers life in England during the English Civil War. It has been a successful way of bridging schemes of work between Tudors and the start of the British Empire.

The Rise and Fall of the Angevin Empire: Hastings to Magna Carta Lessons: 1 of 8 - Who Should be King, 1066? 2 of 8 - The Battle of Stamford Bridge 3 of 8 - The Battle of Hastings 4 of 8 - How does William keep control? 5 of 8 - The Sons of William I 6 of 8 - Empress Matilda and the Anarchy Wars 7 of 8 - Eleanor of Aquitaine and Henry II 8 of 8 - How important was the Magna Carta? This scheme of work is designed with year 7 in mind. The reading age of the reading material / tasks is 10 - 11, with more specific historical terms explained as part of the lessons. All lessons can be taught by specialist or non-specialists, the content and tasks are well organised even if the teacher is not familiar with the time period. All lessons are SEND friendly, with short numbered tasks to complete that do not overload the pupils with too much information at once. Lessons are designed to work as a chronological story, from Emma of Normandy to King John, this makes it a lot easier for pupils to follow the events of early medieval England and France. The Rise and Fall of the Angevin Empire has been a really useful scheme of work to explain the reasoning and logic behind the Hundred Years War and the War of the Roses. It also follows on brilliantly from previous units of work of England’s history of migration.

Scheme takes between 8 - 10 weeks to complete. Lesson order: 1 of 7 - Early problems for Elizabeth 2 of 7- Religious Settlement 3 of 7- Mary, Queen of Scots and Plots at home 4 of 7 - Rivalry with Spain (threats from abroad) 5 of 7 - The Spanish Armada Invasion 6 of 7- Elizabethan poverty 7 of 7 -Elizabethan exploration GCSE History Edexcel: Paper 2 - British Depth study (Early Elizabethan England, 1558-88) I have organised this scheme of work with ‘cause and consequence’ (AO2) very much in mind. By allowing pupils to think about what problems existed for Elizabeth as she becomes queen, to her eventual success overcoming Catholic threats both home and abroad, pupil have shown to be able to explain their understanding better in the ‘explain why…’ and ‘how far do you agree’ questions. Similarly, pace has been at the core of the thinking of this unit of work. Some of the topics such as ‘entertainment’ and ‘education’ have been included as comprehensive homework tasks. Pupil have still been able to answer the higher marked questions we have attempted that focus on these two topic areas so I’m confident that the entriety of the course can be taught in just over two months.
