This is a lesson for mixed ability Year 7 students on the power of medieval kings. Students work out the why Henry II was being whipped, using a series of clues that can be placed in envelopes around the room. All the information they need is in the clues. This ends with a structured writing task around why the king is being whipped.

This looks at the four main long term causes of World War I- Imperialism, Nationalism, Alliances and the arms race. Students have a structured way of learning one factor and then teach it to each other. The lesson then asks students to link these to short term factors, using the Horrible Histories clip, with differentiated tasks to complete whilst watching this clip. It finishes with an exam practice. The worksheets are included within the PowerPoint slides, just to make things simple. This lesson was made for a mixed ability Year 9 class, and was 1 hour long. It could be broken into two shorter lessons.

A lesson on Emily Davison. Can be part of a unit on the Suffragettes or a stand alone lesson on a key figure from history. The 'statements' I used for a plenary exercise for lower ability classes. I handed students different statements. I then asked them to work out if that showed Emily was a hero or not. This helped them formulate an opinion on her actions. Would work for any KS3 class.

A lesson for the Eduqas GCSE History America unit. Focusses on students understanding the story of Watergate using two listening tasks. It then finishes with an exam question from the Eduqas GCSE unit.

This is an entire Scheme of Work for the Historic Site aspect of the Eduqas Crime and Punishment Unit for History GCSE. Every lesson has activities, worksheets and practice exam questions. At times the work refers to the textbook- this is available for free by emailing the exam board, or contact me and I can email it. The scheme of work could easily be adapted for other students studying this content. A lot of the content is generic. I also have a Botany Bay Knowledge Organiser and Revision Booklet available - please see my other resources

This is a lesson for a mixed ability Year 9 group focused on appeasement. I used two videos from BBC Learning Zone for stimulus - the links are saved in the notes section of the powerpoint. The first video should be used to answer the first task on the worksheet. The second is for the 2nd page of the worksheet (LO2).

NB The links for videos are in the notes for the powerpoint. This is an activity on legal rights. The starter is from a worksheet from the Citizenship Foundation. We then looked at current events that are going on to evaluate whether the law really protects our human rights. For more able students you can delete some of the questions and frameworks to allow them to work more independently.

This is for a short (40 minute) lesson with students on what caused the recession. It could be extended with some more discussion or a relevant news article. The links for the two videos are in the notes for the powerpoint.

Would voter turnout increase if 16 year olds got the vote? For the starter I showed them a graph of voter turnout and we discussed reasons turnout has gone down (I have a worksheet but I can't find it!). After doing the activities on the powerpoint, I used a video clip from the BBC's '16- Too Young to Vote' to get them thinking. Then I gave them all a speech bubble and we had a class discussion about whether 16 was too young to vote. The plenary I used for all students in one group, some found it a bit challenging. Plenary 2 could be used for SEN students instead.

A lesson on religion and natural evil, focusing on Islam.

Students evaluate different types of punishment to decide how effective prison and community sentencing are. All the examples are either from direct.gov.uk or restorativejustice.org.uk

Lesson for my Year 10s on how the court system works. The video for Adam's Case is from the BBC Learning Zone.
