Interpretations Checklist for Edexcel GCSE History
RPerkins1994RPerkins1994

Interpretations Checklist for Edexcel GCSE History

(1)
Inspired by Dan Warner-Meanwell’s Source Utility Checklist, I have made an Interpretation Checklist which can be used in a very similar way. Students should read both interpretations and write about the views given in each interpretation but also use the statements in the middle to think about what the author of each focuses on. Could be used as a teacher-led practice task or extension done independently.

What really happened after the Romans left? KS3 History SoW

(2)
A short scheme of work (4 lessons including mini-assessment) centered around the enquiry, What really happened after the Romans left Britain? It is based on a scheme created by @hannahcustworth which explores the ‘traditional’ interpretations of post-Roman Britain and a new, interesting interpretation from Susan Oosthuizen, allowing you to incorporate rigour and scholarship into your curriculum. There are four fully-resourced lessons including a mini-assessment lesson and a topic overview which may be useful for non-specialists in your department. It does rely on parts of the following texts: Usborne History of Britain Knowing History: Medieval Britain by Robert Peal Emergence of the English by Susan Oosthuizen is also referred to. If you have any questions, you can find me on Twitter @MrRPerkins
KS3 Scheme of Work: How far was English royal power challenged in the medieval period?

KS3 Scheme of Work: How far was English royal power challenged in the medieval period?

(0)
This is a scheme of work I have designed which asks: How far was English royal power challenged in the medieval period? In this unit students will explore the nature of English royal power in the medieval era and how this was challenged by the Church, the barons, and even the peasantry. The aim is to expose students to the nature of government in England so that they can see how this changes as they progress through the year. The main disciplinary concept involved here is change and continuity. Students will be analysing how the power of the English monarchy changed as it was challenged by the Church, the barons and the peasantry. The analysis of this key theme will also involve some causation. There are opportunities to explore interpretations too such as that of King John. The lessons are: How important was the Church in Medieval England? How powerful were English kings in the 12th century? Why did Henry II agree to be whipped? Does King John deserve criticism for eroding the power of the monarchy? How did Magna Carta limit the power of the monarchy? What were the origins of Parliament? Did the peasantry successfully challenge the king in 1381? Assessment - ‘The power of England’s monarchy was barely challenged during the medieval era.’ How far do you agree?

Exam Skills Practice Sheets - Edexcel GCSE History

(0)
A collection of worksheets based on David Hibbert’s ideas of ‘arpeggios.’ These are activities that allow students to practice a specific skill for the exam by mirroring the thinking that goes into a specific task. This will enable students to practice thinking about their approach to exam questions without having to spend lots of time planning and writing them. I have created a bank of activities for Edexcel GCSE History questions that are above 4 marks including: Paper 1 Qs 4 and 5/6 Paper 2 Qs 1b, 1c and 1, 2, 3. Paper 3 Qs 2, 3b, 3c and 3d. For the source utility 8-marker, I recommend Dan Warner-Meanwell’s source utility checklist.

This is a unit of work for Edexcel’s GCSE History - Early Elizabethan England, 1558-88 KT2 on Challenges at Home and Abroad. It comprises around 12 lessons and includes opportunities for exam practice.

GCSE History - Early Elizabethan England KT3

(0)
This is a unit of work for Edexcel’s GCSE History unit Early Elizabethan England, 1558-88 KT3 on Elizabethan Society. It comprises around 8 lessons with each lesson including a PPT as well as supporting worksheets. It may seem like there a quite a few and this is because this particular unit was delivered via workbooks but not all are needed to deliver the unit. I would recommend having access to the Hodder textbook on Early Elizabethan England to support delivery of these resources.
