China: Conflict, Crisis and Change 1900 – 1989. Designed for the Edexcel IGCSE Breadth Study but features a wide range of activities and approaches, and is in depth enough, that makes it excellent for all China history courses. It is a standalone SOW (e.g. you don’t need to refer to a text book) and each lesson is self-contained, with all the information and resources required to deliver at least a Good rated lesson if not an Outstanding one. Assessment & activity types are introduced and revisited based on a retrieval grid to ensure maximum learning and imbedding of skills and knowledge. Each lesson is estimated to take 45-60 minutes to complete but in my experience many can stretch over 2 or even 3 lessons depending on teacher judgement. Each lesson features as a minimum: Numeracy & Literacy challenges. Keywords (to add to a student glossary). EAL support sheets. Stretch and challenge activities. Teacher Quick Start Guide. Literacy support mats. Homework extension task mats. Context slide for the lesson. Part 1: Lessons included: China History IGCSE: Intro to China & Course Set Up. (with online self-marking quiz) China History IGCSE: Boxer Rebellion Causes & Events China History IGCSE: Boxer Rebellion Consequences & Reforms China History IGCSE: The 1911 Revolution China History IGCSE: 4th May Movement China History IGCSE: Sun Yet-Sen, Chiang Kai-Shek & Guomindang China History IGCSE: Recap Lesson 1: 1900 – 1926 (with online self-marking quiz) China History IGCSE: The United Front & The Communist Party China History IGCSE: Expeditions, Massacres and Exterminations 1926 – 1934 China History IGCSE: Recap lesson 2: 1926 – 1934 (with online self-marking quiz) China History IGCSE: The Long March 1934-35 China History IGCSE: Consequences of the Long March

Made during the 2020 lockdown for remote learning it is a pretty comprehensive resource (if I may say so) that covers the whole topic and includes: 18 tailor made teacher videos 18 factsheets on the 18 key topics 18 literacy/essay writing challenges* (1 per key topic) 5 Google Quizzes (and printable versions) 1 Stretch and Challenge Project It took a very long time to produce and I am very happy to now be able to share it I would suggest setting it as an ongoing revision or homework task, the teacher videos mean that it can be used for self study also.
