=Cover for Mr. Tarr, Monday 10th November=

Period 1: Year 13, Room S04
The essay on "What was the Impact of WW1?" will be due in next Monday (17th November). On Friday, we will have just one more teacher-led lesson. Today, you should complete two tasks: 1. Make some notes from the PBS Site using these links: [|Link 1] | [|Link 2]. There are some fantastic ideas here about the impact of the war from the best historians in the field right now. At the beginning of Friday's lesson a few of you will be asked to share some of your findings. 2. Write just ONE PARAGRAPH of your final essay ready to be shared with the rest of the class next lesson. This can be on any theme of your choice, but it should be the "finished article" and should be between 200-300 words. We will save these in PUBLIC next lesson so that we can compare our ideas.

Period 2: Year 12, Room S04
Your task is exactly the same as that for Year 13 (see above).

Period 3: Year 11, Room S04
Your task is to complete the "James Spod: Secret Agent" mission [|here]. You must complete the [|worksheet] as your proceed. Tom Nunez will definitely find this game very much to his liking. A factual test on the simulation will follow on Thursday (a Fling the Teacher special).

Period 6: Year 7, Room S04
Start the lesson by handing your "Heraldic Shield" homework to the cover teacher and ask them to stick it in the cupboard behind the desk. I'll get these marked before your next lesson. Your task today is to complete a "spider diagram" about the Middle Ages using [|this website]. You will see that there are 7 main categories on the right-hand side of the screen (Feudal Life, Religion, Homes, Clothing, Health, Arts and Entertainment, Town Life) - but you should choose to use only 5 of these as the main "branches" of your diagram. Merits will be awarded to students who combine factual detail with a good use of pictures and colour. You can work on paper if you wish, or you may prefer to use an online service like [|Mind42] or [|Bubbl.us]. You should complete the task for homework. It will be collected in next Monday.
