These resources relate to the AQA GCSE History unit, Britain: Health and the People. Many of the tasks require the blue textbook from Hodder that accompanies the course. Included are two worksheets and a PowerPoint presentation (with questions), all relating to modern public health. Topics include: housing, free school meals, the NHS and the welfare state. These worksheets are not comprehensive of this section of the text book and are intended to supplement existing work on these topics. Nevertheless, they are useful worksheets to bring into classwork or as homework.

These resources relate to the AQA GCSE History unit, Britain: Health and the People. Many of the tasks require the blue textbook from Hodder that accompanies the course. Included is an activity, based on the content from the textbook, on industrial diseases of the 19th and 20th centuries. Students are required to complete the worksheet and answer the questions. This worksheet is intended to supplement wider work on medicine and public health during the Industrial Revolution.

This resource is intended to be used alongside other resources relating to the OCR A Level topic: Popular Culture and the Witchcraze. This revision table should be used at the very end of the course, or could be completed section-by-section as students work through the content. The table lists the most common themes that feature in the course down one side, with the 3 case studies (+ Europe) appearing along the top. This table will therefore help students when writing thematic questions, as they should ensure that they can draw content from a wide geographical and chronological area.

A revision table to be used in preparation for Qs 1a and 2a of the A Level Russia exam. This table lists some of the key topics that students may be given in the question; they must then list the factors involved in causing this event. Included is a set of possible factors that they may put for each section, although this is by no means comprehensive. They can then use this table for question practice, by choosing two of their factors and writing an answer comparing them.

Various resources relating to the AS/A Level topic: Unification of Italy, c.1830-1870 from Edexcel. Included is a detailed PowerPoint that introduces the topic of nationalism and major thinkers of the period in Italy. There are also handouts that supplement this work, where students can use their course textbook to make notes/answer questions on the viewpoints of the different political/social groups in Italy. These resources would be perfect as part of a much larger unit of work on Italian unification (this section covers 1830-1847).

A set of resources relating to the A-Level unit: Germany, 1871-1990 from Edexcel; however, the material could be adapted to suit most exam boards. Included is a set of detailed PowerPoint presentations relating to the 'social change' breadth topic; specifically these materials relate to the period up until 1919 (later periods will be covered in future resources, so please keep an eye on my shop!) Also included are a couple of blank revision diagrams that students can use during the teaching process. These resources would be invaluable for any teacher teaching this Edexcel unit. They provide an excellent supplement to existing materials on this topic.

A full lesson on Garibaldi’s expedition to Sicily in 1860. The content is part of the Edexcel AS unit: Italian Unification, 1830-1870. Included is a lesson plan that details the structure of the lesson and possible questions to ask students. The starter activity involves students cutting and sticking the cards to the relevant places on the map (chronological order); they can then go back and highlight key details. Then, as the teacher goes through the PowerPoint presentation, students should be adding in further details to their sheets. Finally, a primary source has been included to relate all of this back to the AS exam. I have also included some teacher notes for further detail on some areas.

A set of resources relating to the A-Level unit: Germany, 1871-1990 from Edexcel; however, the material could be adapted to suit most exam boards. Included is a set of detailed PowerPoint presentations relating to the 'Birth of Democratic Germany' depth topic; specifically these materials relate to the period up until 1914-19 (later periods will be covered in future resources, so please keep an eye on my shop!) Also included are a couple of blank revision diagrams that students can use during the teaching process. These resources would be invaluable for any teacher teaching this Edexcel unit. They provide an excellent supplement to existing materials on this topic.

A 60+ page booklet with detailed teacher notes relating to the Edexcel A Level unit: Germany, 1871-1990. Please note that (as many schools will be doing), the first Depth topic (Germany 1871-1914) will be covered by another teacher for coursework, therefore this resource only covers the period from c.1914-1990. These notes have been taken from a variety of textbooks and history books; they are the perfect aid for teaching this unit or could be used to supplement existing knowledge. The knowledge and content here can be easily adapted to suit other exam boards.

A full week/two weeks of resources for teaching life in the trenches during the First World War to Year 9 (could also be adapted for a more-able Year 8 class, if pursuing a three-year GCSE course). The topic also covers Verdun and is intended to be used alongside an independent research project on the trenches. Included is a lesson packs covering this aspect of the First World War (other lesson packs available on my shop!) Each lesson pack includes a PowerPoint (with integrated videos, worksheet screenshots and activities), individual worksheets and contemporary sources (where required) These resources were originally designed for paperless teaching on OneNote; however, it will work perfectly for exercise book teaching (simply replace ‘on OneNote’ with ‘in your exercise books’ on the slides).

A useful card sort and revision sheet for pandemics through time, to be used in conjunction with the 'medicine through time' style unit from any exam board (this was designed for AQA). Give students the cut out cards and ask them to put them together in groups for each pandemic (categories include: name, date, cause, treatment etc.) The content is fairly basic at this stage, as the next task is to transfer this information (in note form) on to the blank table, along with further detail from class work/textbooks. This can then be used for revision, particularly for Q3 of the AQA paper which asks students to make comparisons across the period (e.g. 'Compare the cholera epidemic with the Black Death, in what ways are they similar?)

A full week/two weeks of resources for teaching ‘The World in 1600’ to Year 9 (could also be adapted for a more-able Year 8 class, if pursuing a three-year GCSE course).
