I have refined the sources I use in my Battle of Britain lesson. Students glue in and highlight evidence of courage/valour, evidence of importance to the War, and evidence of importance today. Download PDF and let me know your thoughts! #historyteacher

Nazi Germany lesson on Nazi Police Terror. I've tried to visualise the 'explain why' style so students learn the content, process, then apply it in an exam-style way. Download the PDF here: and the full lesson here: #historyteacher

Revision for GCSE kids on the Cold War using some aspects of chronological ordering. I cannot remember who it was that I saw do this on Twitter though! But it worked well this morning! 😀 #historyteacher

I've been thinking about mid-lower ability groups when tweaking my KS3 work. Here's an activity I cooked up on Doom Paintings. I think students will enjoy adding things which would influence them to be good! Link: #historyteacher #doompainting #medieval

Was Appeasement a mistake or clever policy? I wanted to use source cards but I'm going to trial a colour-coding sheet instead that allows more time for written judgements. Here's the PDF: & full lesson: #historyteacher

I've recently been introduced to importance' or 'significance' circles. I designed this for my workbook on WW1, this one asks students to write the four 'MAIN' causes of war into circles whose size determines importance. They have to explain in the biggest circle. #historyteacher

Just thought I'd share this template with you which I use for having students practice the GCSE Germany interpretations 'how different' and 'why different' questions. It's an 'all in one' sheet which they find useful. Download the Publisher file here:

In my new Consc. Objectors 'trial' lesson, students circulate and read about 6 Conchies and choose to acquit/punish. Or, instead give each table a person and 2 students act as defence council and 2 prosecute with peers as jury. Link: #WW1 #historyteacher

I teach to the end. And I don't apologise for it. "But sir, we watched a film last period." Nope. Watch a film over Christmas if you like 🤣

Do any depts do a newsletter? For 3 months I've trialled it to encourage students to write articles on upcoming history anniversaries & events. So far it's been well received and seems to add value. April here: Has anyone else tried this? #historyteacher
