Revision board games to help students revise Edexcel GCSE History for the courses:
Germany 1919-39 (Weimar and Nazi Germany)
The History of Medicine medieval to modern
The Cold War and Superpower relations 1941-91
Early Elizabethan England.
I have made these for GCSE History, but the templates could be easily adapted for languages, science or any other subject.
Inspired by ideas I saw on Twitter, but completely made from scratch in Powerpoint. These have been made on A4 size slides so will print out nicely (Battleships works well on A3 too). All of them can be edited and used as templates for further sets of games.
Hi
Here is a 40+ page book of activities, practise questions and planning tools for the Edexcel GCSE History course (new spec). It covers Medieval, Renaissance, Pre Modern, 20th Century, surgery and the WW1 case study.
There are mutliple quizes, previous exam questions, sample sources for WW1 (taken from a past paper) and revision lotus grids. To use a lotus grid students for each of the nine topics on it, try to come up with nine facts, names, key terms or anything quickly.
Note: This is a book of activities, not content. It is assumed that students have been taught the relevant content or have access to the knowledge.
I hope you find it useful. If you buy it you are welcome to print as many copies as you like.

Hi
This is a simple game. Pick a category, answer the question and get that much prize money, if you get it right you pick the next category and value. I haven’t done true Jeopardy for any one familiar with the show, just questions and answers. It works really well with groups and buzzers.
The slides are in colour and for some reason the preview doesn’t show them properly. It is all there though.
I used somebody elses template from a medicine quiz and I thank them for making it as it saved me a lot of time. THe Q and A are all my own work. If you wish to share it please do, but please do so for free.
Now with an instructions slide at the end.
*** If the preview slides are out of sequence, it is a TES issue. The download is in order***
Hi, this lesson looks at Glasnost and Perestroika, what they are and could mean. It considers why Gorbachev is deciding to bring about change. The second half of the lesson is about the Chernoybl disaster and the impact this would have on Soviet policy.
Instructions regarding the videos are in the slides.
Enjoy.

In this lesson we look at the key events in the UK (and America) that led to LGBTQ+ rights laws being passed in the UK. For example the Stone Wall Riots and Gays and Lesbian support the miners from 1980s England.
The plenary is taken from another person’s TES resource, but the rest has been built by me.

A lesson for the new spec GCSE History (Edexcel). It covers the Catholic beliefs and how they opposed Elizabeth's compromise. It would also be useful for a study on the Tudors in general, such as at KS3 or the Reformation.

This lesson looks at Hungary under Soviet rule from 1944 and how the secret speech from Khrushchev led to Imre Nagy and in turn the uprising. This was then crushed by the Soviets.
I have used a couple of other Power Points plus my own work to build the content. I thank those who made some of those slides. This is a very content heavy topic so students will likely need the text books to help with the main task.
The main task is a picture strip task. Students stick the strip into the margin and then write about the events adding evidence and explanation.
I hope it is useful. If you use this resource please share it freely for the benefit of others.
This lesson should be set up on tables as a circuit around the room with some props. Make it so that students circumnavigate the classroom.
I hope you enjoy it.
Please if you decide to share and/or modify this lesson do so for free as I have done by creating it.
***TES previews do not work properly, the slides appear out of order, the final download is fine***
This lesson looks at the events of the Cuban Missile Crisis. It is built to follow on from a study of The Bay of Pigs. The main tasks are the video with differentiated worksheet and the talking heads activity. Students will need to space out their heads to make room for the speech bubbles.
It is intended for the Edexcel spec (Hodder book), but would easily adapt for others.
I have made and shared this resource for free. If you modify and/or share it please do so too.
Hi
Here is a lesson for Elizabethan domestic policy and the poor. It is intended for the Edexcel GCSE. *fixed the duplicated question*. Enjoy.
I hope you enjoy my lesson for covering the domestic economy; types of poor; poor laws; Vagabonds and their treatment.

Thanks.
This lesson continues the Tudor era explorers unit. It looks at the colony in Virginia established by the British and the encounters with the Native Americans. It then compares the Disney version of Pocahontas to that of the real story.
It introduces the concept of why interpretations are different.
