Year 12 @deFerrers_6th students working well on the huge 35 question Kahoot quiz on Thatcher using the ‘Challenge’ feature. This has been great to check knowledge recall during the remote learning period. Keep practising these difficult questions!

[de Ferrers History @deFerrersHist]

Some more excellent precautionary Home Front leaflets. Well done Year 9!

[de Ferrers History @deFerrersHist]

An amazing advice film on WW2 British Home Front by a Year 9 student. Too large to upload to Twitter so here are some thumbnails from the clip. Very authentic. So proud of our de Ferrers historians during lockdown! #workhard

[de Ferrers History @deFerrersHist]

@IanMcNeilly @gloverino Wow this is incredible! Thanks for sharing.

[Holocaust Education @UCL_Holocaust]

This is superb to see...great use of colour to demonstrate progression in understanding. Feel sure @TomHaward will be please and inspired by this. Great work @deFerrersHist Yr9.. keep up the good work & the examples coming! RT @deferrers

[de Ferrers History @deFerrersHist]

Some fantastic work from Y9 using the excellent @UCL_Holocaust lesson on concentration camps. You can see progress from students' initial ideas to new learning through use of colour. Thank you for helping our students to learn this significant topic from home.

[de Ferrers History @deFerrersHist]

More fabulous work from our de Ferrers Year 9 historians. Incredible wartime posters!
