- An A2 sized poster diagram that gives an excellent overview of the entire Cold War including:
how it began; how it ended; key ideas and events; causes and consequences, linking of events and ideas, concise explanations, full colour.
(The poster is A2 landscape size allowing it to be printed to A3)
There is also a link to an online version of the diagram which includes embedded videos (YouTube) for extra explanation
Bonus material: A Cold War Unit - Student Inquiry Research and Presentation Task. This is an assessment task that covers the Cold War unit. It is student-centred and involves minimal teacher direction or preparation.
A task requiring students to utilise a range of measurements to calculate the amount of water that flows over the Niagara Falls. A range of measurements are interspersed with facts about the Niagara Falls.
Students need to use length, Area, Volume, Capacity (liquid volume) along with Speed. This task ends with an open investigation into providing drinking water for populations.
This worksheet is provided in PDF format along with MS Word to allow users to modify the content.
The outcome of this activity should have students thinking about capacity (liquid measure) and a range of other measurements that have real world applications. It is highly recommended that some time is spent on the Niagara Falls. This could be redesigned into an inquiry investigation where the students have to identify and find the all the required measurements from web sources.
This worksheet is useful for a lesson where students (individually or in groups) are given a copy of the timeline/chart and the question sheet "Connected the Events 1931-37".
Learning Objective: The goal is for students to find links and describe causes that led to decisions made by the leaders, rather than seeing events in isolation.
Can be done individually, although pairs or groups are recommended to help engage students
This can lead to good class discussion and debate after completion.
Prior Knowledge required: Students should have covered the events of 1931-37 leading up to this worksheet. The purpose of the chart/timeline is for students to visually see the events by date so they can make some of those connections
