Handouts and timelines relating to the 1917 Revolution in Russia. Material covers the February Revolution, Kornilov Affair, Provisional Government and the October Revolution. This would be suitable for all A Level candidates studying the Russian Revolution across all exam boards. Please rate and comment, as all feedback is appreciated.

The display consists of several heads of historical figures in a line across the board; however, each head is positioned at the actual height they would have stood (5ft 5in, 6ft 2in etc.) Students love walking past and measuring themselves against Hitler, Queen Victoria etc. Included are several Historical heads, the names/heights, titles and a key for the side of the display. All that is needed are coloured strips that run vertically from the bottom of the display to the relevant head (see link). I used the coloured border rolls for these! Enjoy!

A selection of materials for Tsarist Russia that can be used/adapted for the new specification. Materials focus on Alexander II to Nicholas II (1855-1917). This can be used for all exam boards.

A set of 22 revision dominoes for the OCR Later Tudors course. Can also be used for any course covering the Mid Tudor Crisis and reign of Elizabeth I. Really useful as a starter activity - hand one domino to each pupil and have them read out the date, the pupil with the corresponding event reads this out and then reads out their date. This should start a chain reaction around the room. My class always want to beat their time! this should start a chain reaction around the room. My class always want to beat their time! There are lots more dates and events that can be added; however, this is a useful starting point.

Detailed diagrams explaining Marxism and the various opposition groups that emerged before 1905. Also included are handouts on early opposition to Alexander II, Alexander III and Nicholas II. These resources would be really useful for A Level courses dealing with any period between 1855 and 1905.

A detailed handout covering the AQA GCSE topic, From Tsardom to Communism: 1914-24, along with a corresponding gap fill exercise. This is a great replacement (or supplement) to the AQA text book, that can sometimes be a little daunting for student. It is perfect as a revision aid that can be carried around easily.

A detailed History Handbook that can easily be tweaked to suit your school's Department. Included is information on relevant policies and I have highlighted in red the things that will need to be tweaked/filled in to make this document relevant to your school. This is an extensive document (30 pages, hence the price) that took a long time to put together. I have left in marking grids and SOW that I feel could be useful. I hope this is helpful!

Included are various resources relating to microclimates that formed part of our field work in Year 7 Geography. Students review how to measure the weather, are introduced to microclimates and then label a diagram. Other resources are for use on the day of the field work, where students walk around the school grounds to pre-determined location to measure the weather; they then think about land use and make decisions. I have also included an 'Exploring Microclimates' PDF provided by School Grounds UK/Learning Through Landscapes. This gives instructions on how to carry out microclimate field work.

Resources relating to a Year 7 Geography lesson on sketch maps. Included alongside the lesson plan is a PowerPoint presentation. Students have to review the features of a map using the coloured pages in their books and sketch maps are then introduced. As an activity/homework, students create their own sketch maps of a theme park, adding in various symbols and making it visually appealing/informative. I printed off a couple of maps of Alton Towers/Thorpe Park to pass around the class (as shown on the PowerPoint), so students could see the level of detail (or lack of it) they needed.

This content is relevant for the new OCR unit on Popular Culture and the Witch Craze. Using the Access to History text book (or their notes, if being used as a revision exercise) students make notes on the legal process surrounding witchcraft accusations. The first sheet relates to the process in Continental Europe, with the second worksheet being relevant to England. Students can then compare the two processes and suggest reasons why more people were accused/executed for witchcraft on the continent. This resource is intended to be used as part of a much larger bundle for this unit. See my shop for more details.

A basic scheme of work for the new AQA GCSE module, Britain: Health and the People, c.1000-Present. Included is a breakdown of the key topics into themes, with a basic structure of lessons throughout the year. Also included are learning objectives and possible activities. Please note, this is a basic SOW to be developed based on your school's timetable and targets.

Students will examine a timeline of Stalin's rise to power and must answer relevant questions. This was intended for the AQA GCSE History B Topic: Stalin's Russia, 1924-1941; however, it can easily be adapted for any GCSE or A Level topic on Stalin's rise to power.

This resource was designed for the new AQA History GCSE unit: Restoration England, 1660-1685; however, it would be suitable for any topic on classical/baroque architecture. All images have been sourced from WikiCommons and are Open Access files. Students can be given the set of images at the beginning of the lesson and must separate them into two piles without any prior knowledge (one interior and three exterior per style). The teacher can then go through the PowerPoint explaining the differences between the two styles, before the students rearrange their images based on this new knowledge. They can then stick these on to two pages in their books with the comparison table, labelling the key features on the photos.

Two activities to run alongside the OCR or Edexcel Textbooks on the witch craze. This is designed specifically for the A Level Topic: Popular Culture and the Witchcraze of the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries from OCR. Students can read the text book (and read around the topic), adding detail to their family tree. What were the relationships? Who were the characters? What happened to each of the accused witches? They can also fill in the timeline using the information from the text book and other sources. This resource is intended to supplement other resources on the Lancashire Witch Trials.

This resource is intended to be used as part of a much larger bundle for this unit. See my shop for more details. This worksheet is intended for use with the OCR unit: Popular Culture and the Witchcraze; however, it could be adapted to suit any A Level exam board. This resource gives an overview of the greatest witch-hunt in English history - that of Hopkins & Stearne, 1545-7. All content is derived from the Access to History textbook and from wider research. Individual cases are cited as well as key dates.

Various resources to aid A Level (or GCSE) teaching of the East Anglian Witchcraze. This was designed for the OCR Unit 3 topic: Popular Culture and the Witchcraze of the 16th and 17th Centuries. Students may need to use either the Hodder or Pearson text books to complete one of the worksheets on the causes of the hunts; however, everything else can be used independently. Included are: information sheets on the hunts a sorting activity focusing on the causes of the hunts revision sheets extracts from Hopkins' book where he responds to John Gaule's criticisms a biography worksheet for students to complete using their own research

Students are given a visual source (WikiCommons) and are tasked with analysing/evaluating the source for homework. This is a great worksheet to complete towards the end of the slavery topic, as the students will be able to appreciate the sentiments of the image. There are prompts underneath the image to encourage students to explain the source in more detail. This worksheet is intended for KS3.

A handout and PowerPoint presentation created in support of the Edexcel AS Level unit: The Unification of Italy, 1830-1870. Included is a blank copy of a revision diagram to allow students to write notes in an ordered way on the 1830 revolutions. Ideally this would be blown up to A3 and a map of Italy has been included for reference. Also included is a detailed, completed copy of the handout using a number of text books. Lower ability students could be given this to support note taking or this could be shown on a projector and talked through in class. To accompany these materials, I have put together a detailed PowerPoint presentation to introduce the content. It provides an introduction to the subject as well as a summary of the 1830 Revolutions.
