An exciting time for history

Current Government policy has both increased the status of history and put pressure on schools to increase participation in the subject at GCSE. This makes it more important than ever to lay a strong foundation at Key Stage 3, so that students of all abilities get the most out of history, developing key skills and a lasting love of the subject. Meanwhile, extra student numbers may test the capacity of already busy staff.

Save countless hours

KS3 History Activities is a series of six packs aimed specifically at the delivery of KS3 history. Broken down into manageable self-contained units, they can be used to form the basis of a course, integrated by section into any scheme of work or used as a bank of activity ideas to be dipped into. Each pack contains 10 to 12 units.

Each unit offers:

  • varied, attractive and interactive student materials
  • detailed teacher’s notes providing activity outlines, curriculum references and assessment and extension ideas
  • background information for use by both teacher and student.

The flexibility you need

The KS3 History Activities series can be used to structure a full programme of study, but the materials can be equally valuable as reinforcement or enrichment work, or as one-off fillers. Although they are primarily aimed at Key Stage 3, many staff will also find them useful for GCSE students who need extra support.

Note that this series is also available as part of the Digital Library for History KS3.
