A simple sequencing activity to help develop chronological knowledge of Ancient Egypt (and ability to order events into order). This is based on twenty events from King Narmer unifying Egypt in c3,100 BCE to the Roman annexation (30 BCE) This comes in three different variants to provide support or challenge, but all are based on the same approach. This is where the events are listed alphabetically -with their approximate dates- and students need to sort them into chronological order -using the outline sheet provided. This means that they are suitable for adaptive teaching, by providing degrees of scaffolding whilst keeping the content the same. The main activity is where the events are arranged in groups of five (each of the four different sets in order so that the ‘blank’ timeline is filled from oldest to newest) -there are blank sheets to help with the sequencing. For greater challenge there is a version with the events organised into two groups of ten events. For support there is an outline timeline table with the dates already provided, students need to match the correct events to the date. (The correct order of each set of ten events is provided!) This resource is suitable for use in class as well as ideal for homework / independent study.

A resource to help students improve their knowledge and understanding of the chronology of Ancient Sumerian history. This resource is designed specifically to help students in particular with the concept of chronology through a visual example. The power point is designed to convey a sense of the passage of time by having the transition between slides vary in length depending on how many years actually passed between events. There is a range of 24 selected events from c4,100 BCE -start of the Uruk period and increasing urbanisation to c1760 BCE when the Babylonians conquered Mesopotamia. Each slide has a date, event and appropriate illustration. Each event slide is on show for five seconds and with the transitions varying from one second to forty seconds the whole presentation lasts for approximately five minutes. (most transitions are eight seconds or shorter, so students don’t have too long to wait but does give a sense of different lengths of time). There is also a ‘click through’ version of the slide show (same events) to enable the teacher to pause to give additional information or discuss the event with students. The selection of events is not meant to be definitive for the study of that period (it’s a selection not a comprehensive timeline). This allows for an extra activity/challenge of students deciding what is missing/what could be left out? This is a companion resource to our timeline activity on this period -which features most of these events in a sequencing challenge.

A resource to help students improve their knowledge and understanding of the history of Roman Britain. This resource is designed specifically to help students in particular with the concept of chronology through a visual example. The power point is designed to convey a sense of the passage of time by having the transition between slides vary in length depending on how many years actually passed between events. There is a range of 25 events, from the invasion of 43 CE (ordered by Emperor Claudius) to the end of Roman control in 410 CE (when the appeal to Rome for help was rejected). Each slide has a date, event and appropriate illustration. Each event slide is on show for five seconds and with the transitions varying from one second to twenty-seven seconds the whole presentation lasts for approximately five minutes. (most transitions are ten seconds or shorter, so students don’t have too long to wait but does give a sense of different lengths of time). There is also a ‘click through’ version of the slide show (same events) to enable the teacher to pause to give additional information or discuss the event with students. The selection of events is not meant to be definitive for the study of that period (it’s a selection not a comprehensive timeline).

A resource to help students improve their knowledge and understanding of the chronology of English history during the Anglo-Saxon / Viking period. This resource is designed specifically to help students in particular with the concept of chronology through a visual example. The power point is designed to convey a sense of the passage of time by having the transition between slides vary in length depending on how many years actually passed between events. There is a range of 26 events, from 449 CE -the traditional date for the arrival of the Anglo-Saxons in England-to 1066 CE and the end of Anglo-Saxon England following the Norman invasion and victory at Hastings. Each slide has a date, event and appropriate illustration. Each event slide is on show for five seconds and with the transitions varying from one second to twenty-four seconds the whole presentation lasts for approximately five minutes. (most transitions are shorter than ten seconds, so students don’t have too long to wait but does give a sense of different lengths of time). There is also a ‘click through’ version of the slide show (same events) to enable the teacher to pause to give additional information or discuss the event with students.

A set of thirty-five thirty pages of colouring sheets: A resource to support work on this popular topic as well as being useful for cross curricular art and when providing resources for ‘school at home’. The images have been selected to cover a range of topics from Britain (and some elsewhere) during the Anglo-Saxon Period including the Viking attacks and settlements. Includes workers, buildings, ships, coins, jewellery and the farming year etc. Supplied as a pdf for ease of printing-designed for A4 but can easily be printed multiple images on a page if wished. The images are taken from a range of public domain sources (mainly 19th century books). As they are mainly screenshots of old book pages this may be reflected in the quality of the outlines though many have been digitally enhanced to help provide an outline for colouring in.

The first is to read a piece of informative text (c 220 words) which covers all the deities and their area of influence and then complete a table -giving the relevant area for each god/goddess. The second is to read a shorter piece of text (160 words) and then complete a family tree ; there is also a support version with the first letter given. The third has a table giving the deities and their symbols/associated objects with a blank table to complete using this information -as well as a version for students to draw the appropriate symbol.

The post 2000 period in particular helps support citizenship learning- through helping show why there are so many refugees given the recent and on-going conflicts.

In the main presentation each slide represents one year (running through takes just over 5 minutes) with each year showing the selected conflicts taking place in that year (so some slides are rather crowded!).
