We are learning to… Describe the restrictions introduced under DORA Explain the purpose of these restrictions I can… Create a mind map of DORA Laws Complete N5 Qs on the topic

Background… Herbert Asquith When war broke out, the government felt it was important that everyone got behind the war effort They felt daily life would have to change in order to keep Britain safe Must make sure there’s no funny business going on in Blighty

The Defence of the Realm Act (DORA) was passed on 8th August 1914 (4 days after war was declared.) It meant the British government had much more power over the people and could control their behaviour to help win the war.

Take this Title on a new double page DORA Take this Title on a new double page

Today’s Tasks Take the sheet of DORA restrictions and cut them out into individual statements With a partner, read through each and discuss There are four untrue statements – can you identify them? Once you have the 20 correct statements, glue them into your jotter around the title

Extension DORA Restrictions all had a purpose. They were introduced to; Reduce the likelihood of spying from the enemy Increase productivity at work/ reduce drunkenness Keep up public morale/ reduce low spirits Task – Use highlighters to highlight each restriction with its main purpose

Were people happy to accept DORA?
