There is a range of 20 topics including the transatlantic slave trade, Britain in 1851, The Great Powers before WW1. (See below for full list of contents.)

A resource to encourage purposeful talk and students to reflect on their values. This example slide has 5 separate ‘questions’ to stimulate discussion and reflection. The objectives are to encourage students to discuss and so develop oral skills; reflect on their values

A resource to support learning about BAME history and community throughout the year. Every day has its own power point slide with an image and an event or person from the history of Britain who are of Asian heritage (or had a significant impact on British history). Over the year most dates feature an individual whilst some feature a significant event such as the arrival of Asian refugees from Uganda. There is a wide range of people including the well-known such as Priti Patel and there are also less famous ones such as Tom Singh ; there is also a wide time range from Christopher and Cosmas (in Tudor times) to Rishi Sunak. The same people/events are listed in a word document.

A selection of activities to help tutor groups or classes get to know each other. The full version of this resource has 32 different activities on both power point and word document The power point has five different groups of activities: Sorting activities – getting children moving and engaging with each other; ‘Find someone who ‘ – needs the children talk to each other. They have to find someone who can do a particular task or who likes something particular or who has (done) something. Discussion points - a set of questions to get small groups talking about issues (we have tried to avoid any controversial topics) Dilemmas – a different type of question for groups to discuss their response to certain situation (again we have tried to avoid any controversial topics) Miscellaneous – a selection of 10 challenges including ‘think outside the box, number association and ‘tell the time’ The word document with the full resource contains the same activities- with sheets to fill in for the ‘Find someone who…’ challenges. The new 2022 version also has some visual challenges to provide a different opportunity for group work (‘spot the differences’ and ‘what is it?’)

A set of three different types of prompts to encourage discussion in a structured way and promoting tolerance of different views There are: 40 Discussion points with a citizenship related question that requires a group response ; 20 Moral dilemmas with a particular focus on reflecting on personal and social values 10 Top threes for a category so means consideration of criteria for decision making Resources are supplied on a power point and a word document

A collection of resources that illustrate the role that Imperial forces played in WW1 -did you know that over 1m Indian troops served? There is a power point with a map slide showing the main contributors to the Imperial forces with each linked to a brief information slide; this information is also provided in a word document. A worksheet looks at where Imperial soldiers fought and how many there were from around the globe. There is also a wordsearch featuring fifteen of the nations that supplied troops and labourers to the Allied war effort. Ideal for study of the British Empire as well as ‘Black History’

Since the end of WW1 the world has never been fully at peace. This resource is ideal for use at this time of remembrance (whilst also extending horizons to look at the wider world) This resource shows in visual form how the past 100+ years have still been a period of ongoing conflict (despite hopes that WW1 would be the ‘war to end all wars’). There is a selection of 50 different conflicts; a range covering civil wars, invasions and multi-national wars. The emphasis is on the post WW2 period to help support citizenship learning-in particular through helping show why there are so many refugees given the recent and on-going conflicts. (The emphasis is on the global community so wars such as the Falklands which was ‘just’ UK v an opponent are not included in this resource). In the main presentation each slide represents one year (running through takes just over 5 minutes) with each year showing the selected conflicts taking place in that year (so some slides are rather crowded!). For each conflict the dates are given as well as one sentence about it (this only appears when the conflict begins). There is also a power point presentation of 50 slides -one per conflict- as well as a word document with the same information. Finally there is a set of three word searches featuring most of the nations involved in the featured conflicts.

Updated for Charles III This resource is a power point with a difference to support knowledge and understanding of chronology. Each slide features a picture of the monarchs of England/Britain from Alfred the Great to Charles III. Each slide appears for a varied amount of time. This helps show how much real time they reigned for – in this presentation 1 second equals 4 years (so the presentation lasts for around 5 minutes) .

Two examples from our selection of information on a range of 40 people or events associated with Wales. There is a power point presentation with some information on each person/event. Please note these are taken from resources which have been provided as part of our Daily Tutor Time © subscription from 2012 to 2017.

A memory challenge using images- based on ‘Kim’s game’. There is a set of slides each of which features 10 different pictures-that will disappear one by one so that after a minute all are gone. (there is a second slide with them all on to check after a chance to recall the images) How many can your students remember (or you??) ; can be done as a solo challenge or in groups (useful for encouraging team work –what’s a winning strategy?) – could also be used as a staff challenge! The full resource has 30 separate challenges -all on power point.

A set of linked resources and activities to help students improve their knowledge and understanding of the chronology of British history. This is an important part of the History National Curriculum but one which often causes students difficulty. This is a sample of a selection from a range of these resources. These are taken from the resources focussed on KS3. These resources are designed specifically to help students in particular with the ordering of events. To help with understanding the passage of time there is a power point presentation that shows the intervals between events. This has a range of selected events and is designed to convey a sense of the passage of time by having the transition between slides vary in length depending on how many years actually passed between events. Each slide has a date, event and appropriate illustration. (Each event slide is on show for five seconds and the whole presentation lasts for approximately five minutes). As a bonus there is also a ‘click through’ version of the slide show to enable the teacher to give additional information or discuss the event with students. The selection of events is not meant to be definitive for the study of that period (it’s a selection not a comprehensive timeline!) – this allows for an extra activity/challenge of students deciding what is missing/what could be left out. The same events are on a word document and to help with improving knowledge there are activities which involve matching events to dates etc. The first involves sorting set of five different events into the correct order – available on power point and word document. The second is a set of printable ‘cards’ which can be used for sorting or matching tasks (such as the matching pairs game) – each event is on a separate ‘card’ from its date (organised in sets of 10). The third is a set of ‘domino cards’ to provide a more supported matching challenge; each card has an event and a date that links to another event -so making a sequence of events. There are available the following sets of resources: (KS3) Periods in British History Medieval Times (2 sub sets – England ; Britain and other nations) Tudors and Stuarts (2 sub sets – Tudors ; Stuarts) Industrial Revolution (and farming etc – 3 sub sets: 1694 to 1803; 1803 to 1846; 1851 to 1901 Britain (and the world) c1714 to c1900 (3 sub sets: Britain and the World; Politics and Reform ; Society and Culture Britain in the 20th century (2 sub sets – Britain in the 20th century; Britain and the world) There are also resources on KS2 topics
