This fun and original assembly is designed to teach children all about Black History Month, including: -What Black History Month is; -Why we have Black History Month; -What life has been like for Black British people in the past and what it is like today; -Providing examples of influential Black British people and what they have achieved; -How Black History Month is celebrated. The slides are visually-engaging and well-presented, and the subject matter is tailored to the interests and needs of young people. It includes links to well-chosen videos to emphasise/ reinforce key points, in addition to song suggestions. There is enough here for a 30-35 minute assembly (it is 21 slides long), but of course you can cut bits out/ tailor to your own individual needs. No further resources are required, everything that you need to present the assembly is included. I would say that the assembly is ideally pitched at KS2, but both KS3 and KS1 would be able to access it with only minor vocabulary/ language adaptations. The slides are fairly self-explanatory, but I’ve included guidance notes to assist the speaker. Hope that you find this useful!

Why do historians disagree about the past, and how do different interpretations shape our understanding of history? This fully resourced and engaging Key Stage 3 History lesson introduces students to the concept of historical interpretations and helps them understand that history is not simply a collection of facts, but is shaped by evidence, perspective and the questions historians ask. It develops critical thinking and source analysis skills while encouraging students to move beyond what happened to explore why historians reach different conclusions. The lesson begins with an engaging starter activity that introduces the idea of historical interpretations before exploring why people can view the same event or individual in different ways. Students are encouraged to consider how evidence, context and personal perspective influence historical accounts. Students then investigate two contrasting case studies. The first examines different interpretations of Henry VIII, evaluating whether he should be remembered as a tyrant or a visionary ruler. The second explores competing explanations for the fall of the Fall of the Western Roman Empire, comparing interpretations that emphasise barbarian invasions with those that argue internal decline was the more significant cause. Using a range of carefully selected sources and viewpoints, students analyse evidence, compare historical arguments and justify their own conclusions. The lesson promotes debate, discussion and independent thinking while introducing one of the key historical concepts that underpins both KS3 and GCSE History. This lesson is ideal as an introduction to historical interpretations, an observation lesson or a ready-to-teach resource requiring minimal preparation. Included in thislesson: Fully editable PowerPoint Introduction to historical interpretations and historical thinking Two detailed case studies: Henry VIII and the fall of the Roman Empire Source analysis, comparison and evaluation activities Differentiated resources with suggested teaching strategies Ideal for KS3, observation lessons and GCSE preparation Please leave a review if you find this resource useful.

A good Year 7 lesson for the first week of term to encourage independent reading. You will need at least one copy of Michael Morpurgo’s essay We Are What We Read in which he reflects on his childhood experiences of reading. This is published in Singing for Mrs Pettigrew: A Storymaker’s Journey, Walker Books, 2007. Read the essay with/ to the class without telling them the name of the writer. Discuss the four questions (teacher’s notes provided) and then ask class to guess the name of the writer using the clue in question 4. They may be surprised to learn that Morpurgo did not like books when he was their age. In pairs, pupils discuss questions about their own reading experiences, then produce a piece of writing to describe their own Personal Reading History. A 3-page Word document
