Nuremberg Laws and Kristallnacht

Germany 1890-1945 Democracy and Dictatorship Bundle Part 3

This bundle is the third and final part in a series of lessons I have created for AQA GCSE 9-1 Germany 1890-1945: Democracy and Dictatorship. As well as focusing on GCSE exam practice questions, the lessons apply the skills necessary to enable the students to achieve the highest grades. The lessons will allow students to demonstrate (AO1) knowledge and understanding of the key features and characteristics of the period studied from Youth Groups to life in Germany during the war. They will study (AO2) second-order concepts such as change and continuity in the role of women and how their lives were transformed and the causes and consequences of the Final Solution. The analysis and evaluation of sources (AO3) are used in for example the Nuremberg Laws and Kristallnacht lesson whilst substantiated judgements are made (AO4) on how far the Nazis controlled the Churches in Germany. The lessons are enquiry based with a key question using a lightbulb posed at the start of the lessons and revisited to show the progress of learning. The resources includes suggested teaching strategies, retrieval practice, differentiated materials and comes in Powerpoint format if there is a wish to adapt and change. The lessons are as follows: L1 The Nazis and the economy L2 The Hitler Youth L3 The role of women in Nazi Germany L4 The Nazis and the Churches L5 Hitler’s hate list L6 The Nuremberg Laws and Kristallnacht L7 The Final Solution L8 Opposition in Nazi Germany L9 The German Home Front 1939-45 (free resource) Please note that setting a full mock examination in class after completing this unit is strongly recommended. All the examination resources and markschemes are subject to copyright but can easily be found on the AQA website.
