It has been a long time between posts. Have changed units for this term and finally got around to putting some new resources on my class wikispace. These include some useful glogsters for my War Poetry topic with Year 9. Collage snapshots help establish contextual understanding and highlight some of the focus concerns of the poets of the Great War. Year 10 is also drawing to a close with study focussed on the post nuclear attack play, 'Adam's Ark'. I have posted some clips relating to Chernobyl, the worst nuclear accident to date.
'Goodnight Mr. Tom' continues to be one of the most popular search tags for those who end up on my sites, testimony to the fact that the most enduring stories are those that deal with human endurance of one kind or another.
Try this site - http://www.nwlg.org/pages/resources/living_blitz/ - with eyewitness accounts on.
Design WW2 campaign posters and slogans. You could also use Glogster for this. Have a look at this site for lots of lesson ideas about using the campaign posters - http://www.archives.gov/education/lessons/wwii-posters/
