4 Mock Feedback…. I would like to see everyone individually about their mock because I appreciate the amount of time you put into them. I have set some work that you can get on with. You may need to use your initiative/common sense with tasks. Compulsory tasks MUST be complete at end of the two hours.

5 TASKS – you can do it whilst listening to Xmas songs!
Make sure you book is in good order before the end of term, sheets stuck in/titles underlined etc. Stick in your mock also. Cut out worksheet 1.1 and make a timeline in your books of all the events of leading to WWII. Use p8/9 to make a poster in your book of what the Treaty of Versailles decided (you may wish to include a map) – include all specific detail e.g. Germans allowed 6 battleships. Complete source Q: What is the message of source 16, p11? (6 marks) – Use specific detail from the source and your own knowledge. Use the source structure sheet to help you. If you finish everything, you can read a BBC History Magazine!
