This scheme was designed to cover a large part of the Period Study (Foundations of Rome) for the OCR Ancient History 9-1 GCSE.
The reign of the kings can be complex and difficult to access for students. My students liked these lessons because they are all dual coded to reduce cognitive load - meaning they can be accessed by all.
Appropriate video clips are included throughout, as are pertinent AfL questions and summative exam questions so students can put their learning to the test and hone their exam skills.
Livy’s opinions (and Dionysius’) are examined throughout the lessons and the merits of each king are analysed in relation to all the others.
Thanks for taking a look! These massively helped my students - hopefully they can help yours too.
