I've been a Secondary School teacher since 2013 and since discovering a passion for designing and creating engaging lessons that students genuinely appreciate, I couldn't imagine myself doing anything else. To date (Aug 2017) I've had over 35,000 people download my work that I have previously uploaded to TES and I've never received lower than 4 stars for my work in my feedback.

Facebook (2016 model) worksheet template

Students of all ages have enjoyed using the Facebook template worksheet for classroom and homework activities. In the past, the template I had created was based on a Facebook profile from 2012, I realised that students were not engaging with this as much as I’d have liked, hence the update. I have gone to great lengths to make the work sheet as good as possible; for example, I have found and used the official Facebook colour scheme to improve the realism. You are invited to alter the sheet as you see best, I have tended to add a photo/picture for the top banner that would reflect the person the profile is for - but this can be done as an additional task, as could the profile picture.

The Tripadvisior worksheet is a great way for students to engage in multiple perspectives or make use of peer assessment. I have used the Tripadvisor sheet for KS3 History looking at trench warfare, with soldiers complaining about conditions, before having senior command reply to these complaints. I have also used the worksheets in KS4 when addressing Elizabeth Tudor's 'Middle Way' with Catholics and Protestants reviewing a CofE church.

We start by looking at the reign of King Richard II, those students who have covered the Peasants Revolt will be able to recall his actions here and tie together why he was unpopular. From there, we look at the events and actions of the different leaders until we arrive at the Tudor dynasty. The whole scheme should take roughly a half term to work through. This scheme of work satisfies the National Curriculum: The development of Church, state and society in Medieval Britain 1066-1509 The Hundred Years War The Wars of the Roses; Henry VII and attempts to restore stability

Case Study: Empress Matilda

(0)
I have written a series of lessons promoting powerful female figures in History that predate the Tudors. The thinking was to make my curriculum more inclusive and to improve the gender balance across key stage 3 in terms of the content that is taught. As such, my ‘herstory’ (instead of History) unit is something I’m quite proud of. The lessons can be taught either in isolation as case studies, embedded into the curriculum taught in year 7 or taught as its own unit of work in its own right. Lessons include: Lesson 1 - Boduccia Lesson 2 - Empress Matilda Lesson 3 - Eleanor of Aquitaine Lesson 4 - Joan of Arc All lessons are written for students with a reading age between 11-12 to ensure accessiblity. All resources are included with the lesson. Lesson can be taught by a non-specialist.
