Six standalone one-hour KS3 History cover lessons (1066 to the Suffragettes) that a non-specialist can run with no laptop or projector. Each one has a reading, a primary source with content/origin/purpose steps, 8 retrieval questions, a “how far do you agree” paragraph with a writing frame, an early-finisher task and a full answer key.

Lessons: 1066 and the Battle of Hastings; Magna Carta, 1215; the Black Death and the Peasants’ Revolt; the Gunpowder Plot; child labour in the Industrial Revolution; Suffragists and Suffragettes.

It also includes a blank template, a step-by-step method and question/frame banks so you can build more cover lessons for your own scheme of work.
