This is a resource I have taught to all ability year 7- (SEN alternatives are provided on the slides ) It includes L1- introduction to early settlers and what people have brought to Britain- students are to sell Stone Henge- I usually complete this task over 2 lessons L2- What does it mean to be British? L3- Create your own country- booklets for students and they are to work in groups to find out the basics to establishing their own country- usually takes 2 lessons L4- Early immigration research- find out about the Romans, Celts, Vikings, Anglo-Saxons L5- Assessment/ essay. SEN resources provided as well for assessment L6- Other immigrants L7- Positives and Negatives immigration has brought L8- Linking to modern day and the immigration problem today The whole point of this topic is to establish what is an immigrant and to conclude that everyone in Britain is an immigrant.

I use this resource whilst teaching about early immigration and why people decide to move from different countries. This lesson can run over 1 or 2 lessons and it thoroughly enjoyed by students. It involves them getting into groups, creating a name for their country, developing a national anthem, creating a flag, presenting their country and then deciding if they would like to emigrate to a different country.

I have used these resources with my Citizenship class as a way to assess and revise knowledge. This assessment is similar to an Edexcel exam. Enjoy and use as you wish.

I used this resource with my current GCSE citizenship group when teaching unit 3: The global community It includes: 3 introduction lessons on citizenship and using citizenship perspectives (I have used the recent Calais crisis). The next lesson is all about the economy and then it leads onto government spending, inflation, who does what and then finally the successes and failures of business. Use as you wish and enjoy
