In partnership with the Legal Education Foundation, Young Citizens’ has developed a set of free lesson plans examining the legal system in Wales. Did you know that the age of criminal responsibility in Wales is ten? In Scotland it is 12. In Wales you can legally leave full-time education at sixteen, whereas in England you have to be 18. Why the differences and is this fair? These are just some of the questions we explore in our brand new set of resources – The Law in Wales. Aimed at KS3 and 4 the lessons cover areas such as: Why do we have laws? How the law affects their day to day life How laws are made and how they can be changed Devolution and the impact it has had on Welsh law Want to access more high quality resources?

Wordsearch Puzzle sheet of keywords on the theme of ‘Types of Government’. Powerpoint so can be used on the board or printed as a worksheet.

These resources have been highly-rated individually by TES users, follow the same consistent format and are easy to follow. There is zero extra work required, although each lesson is still completely editable too. I use all of these myself as a Head of PSHE and Citizenship and I really hope you find them excellent value. I’ve put literally months of time into this to make these lessons top quality for my own school team. I have ‘One Year of PSHE’ Packs for Years 7, 8, 9 and KS4. You can check them out at the shop link below. Please leave me a review and I’ll send you any other resource of your choice for free. Many more inexpensive or free resources at my shop: EC_Resources

Wordsearch Puzzle sheet of keywords on the theme of ‘US President Nicknames’. Powerpoint so can be used on the board or printed as a worksheet. Includes space for students to explain the keywords and suggested extension activities. Can take 10 minutes or an hour, depending on which activities the students complete. Ideal for the start of a lesson, a quick filler, a homework, part of a cover lesson or as a plenary on the board with a whiteboard pen. The idea behind these is to get students to become more literate and think independently about the words that could be used to describe the topic being taught. The repetition of the word over and over as they look for the word is useful in remembering the terms. Often the students will pick up on things that you would not normally expect!

13 topical questions of the past week’s news, across the UK and the world. ANY MIS-SPELLINGS/MISSING CAPITALS ETC. IN THE PREVIEW ARE INTENTIONAL AND LINK TO THE LITERACY QUESTIONS IN THE REST OF THE QUIZ! As the Easter holidays are now here, the next News Quiz will be on 23rd April (when my school starts back). Powerpoint so can be used on a standard whiteboard. Includes 2 literacy and 1 numeracy questions based on the other questions. Works well as a form group activity in registration time. I give sweets/reward points to the winning group! (We’re not supposed to give out sweets so it’s a nice ‘naughty’ reward for knowing about the world this week!) Created 38 school weeks of the year and uploaded to TES.
