What about Fern Riddell? Recently written a book on the history of sex. Might be a starting point
Absolutely. Found this a couple of years ago with our (just gone) year 11. Now teach explicitly and have also tried to introduce the concept earlier, without doing 'exam style' questions. Mostly in explanations.
Consequence for sure!
Essentially anything quite abstract. That sometimes requires a diagram to support understanding - containment, siege, revolution are the few that spring to mind
It’s International Podcast Day! So please allow me to tell you about my BBC #podcastpodcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/y...
Listen to BBC Radio 4’s You're Dead to Me podcast with Greg Jenner on Apple Podcasts.
This 18th-century écorché by Honoré Fragonard predates Body Worlds and plastination by 250 years. Fragonard never divulged his preservation methods. In 1771, he was expelled from his teaching position at the École Nationale Vétérinaire d'Alfort as a madman.
Really loved this - absolutely nailed curriculum reflecting locality. Love! Question, from a curriculum pov - what was dropped to make room for such an enquiry? Clearly a huge amount of work went in, but I imagine it takes up a considerable chunk of lesson time? What did that process look like?
LOVE the early Stuarts...so much fun! Although, as you say, not much fun at the time. I'm intrigued by James' spending habits! I thought this podcast by Gr3g Jenner was a great insight into James as a starting point www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p...
Greg Jenner takes us back to 16th-century Scotland to meet King James VI.
I love this though. Shows how under James, globalisation not only continued but prospered. He's so overlooked sometimes, in some ways, and constantly (unfairly, I think) in Elizabeth's shadow.
I mean, I love my job (career switcher, best thing I ever did) I get to be a massive nerd all day and tell history stories to awesome young people all day. And get paid for it. But it's been these interactions this week which have just made it.
