Having originally entered into teaching through Teach First, which I completed in a challenging London Borough with a personal grading of Outstanding, I have since worked as a KS3 coordinator and am now a Second in Department (History and Government & Politics) at a leading international school. Every resource I share has been taught in my own classroom. I don't advocate them as the finished pieces, but I strive for innovation and welcome feedback to continue to improve my own practice!

Electoral systems (Edexcel spec)

Electoral systems (Edexcel spec)

(0)
This lesson provides: A reasonably extensive coverage of the different electoral systems that are required for analysis in the Edexcel specification A scaffold for evaluating the different electoral systems in coming to a judgement between them. A sample question that provides a completely made-up source (so that you can use without fear of reducing the pool of resources already available to students for practicing source questions for this specification). The presentation is best delivered through the PowerPoint presentation mode, as each electoral system slide comes with buttons which will link you to the strengths, weaknesses and specific examples for students to know for each system. Just click on these during the presentation and it will move to the correct slide. I have also used data from the electoral commission to create a visual representation of the % make up of seats that would have occurred in the 2017 general election. On slide 21, an additional version of this image is shown - this shows the actual % split of votes so that you can compare each of the images against it. Each individual circle within these images constitutes 1% of the vote.
GCSE - Medicine Through Time: The development of Germ Theory

GCSE - Medicine Through Time: The development of Germ Theory

(0)
The development of Germ Theory is complex and incorporates numerous factors that are integral to the Medicine Through Time unit at GCSE. This is a lesson that is built around a detailed game where students progress through the periods and (under tight timed conditions) utilise the information from the different cards to complete their table. It should be flagged that these lessons do not have to be used as a game and can just as easily be used as a simply comprehension and consolidation activity. The two word document sheets go with the first lesson, with lesson 2 then focusing on consolidating and adding a few remaining details to the topic. In completing these lessons, student knowledge should easily exceed the requirements of the course (though I make this claim without having any actual connection to the exam board!!!).

Each lesson is numbered for easy identification as to which resources fit with which lesson, and the overall recommended order to the course.

A-Level History: Britain, 1625-1701 - Political & Religious Change (units 1&2)

(0)
This bundle contains the bulk of the resources I used to provide my A-Level unit on Britain, 1625-1701 (Edexcel) last year. It contains a combination of PowerPoint presentations as well as worksheets. Although this represents a significant amount of time and effort, I am only pricing this at £10 as it comes with some caveats: These resources will not be sufficient for the full provision of the political and religious components of the A-Level course. Some lessons are built on the presumption that you have access to the core textbook. They provide direction on relevant pages and recommended tasks, however most lessons are not built on this and if you do not have access to the textbook then there will still be value in accessing the information in the bundle as well as the structure that the course was carried out in. There is some direction to external websites given in the notes. One task in the unit directs you towards Massolit, which is an incredible resource and I would highly recommend making use of it. The course will still require extensive time dedicated to understanding the course. Some slides direct discussion, but do not provide all of the information. Although I’d consider this level of knowledge expected to successfully run an A-Level course, I understand that it is a limitation of the resource that it is not comprehensive in and of itself. This bundle is intended as a resource to draw from. Some lessons you may feel comfortable running with without much amending. However, I’m only sharing this as it is a course I taught for one year and now will not be teaching again due to A-Level changes within the department, so I hope it is of some use in flushing out the courses for other teachers.

Textbook: The Vietnam Conflict 1945 to 1975

(0)
A 120 page textbook for the Pearson Edexcel IGCSE course: The Vietnam Conflict, 1945 to 1975, covering all the key topics with accompanying tasks and practice exam-style questions, as well as guidance on exam technique. I created this due to the lack of an exam-board approved textbook. It was a labour of love that amounted to many, many late evenings of work. It is designed so that you can print and distribute to your classes, though please do leave a review if you find it useful!

Why did the Renaissance begin in Italy? Audio-enabled unit, flipped learning

(0)
This is a substantial, eight lesson KS3 course looking at the causes of the Italian Renaissance. It was created with the intention of being able to provide directly to students so that they can then self-teach the course. Many slides come with audio-buttons that will trigger (if in presentation mode) to provide audio-instruction on what to do or what to know. Many lessons come with additional handouts and writing templates. The intended end product is an essay, where the question format is in line with a GCSE style question, to begin training students to understand how to access questions like that. Each lesson builds towards this end point, both in terms of content as well as analytical and written\ ability. The level of delivery for the unit was high-attaining Year 8, however there is enough content and complexity in the unit for it to be useful for Year 9 students as well.
