Discovering the Past

by B. Brown and C. Shephard

Published 25 January 1996
This is a pack of special needs support materials for Study Unit 3 in the Key Stage 3 National Curriculum-targeted Schools History Project for the period 1750 to 1900. It is designed to support history teaching with low-attaining or special needs pupils. The picture pack workbook is accompanied by a 16-sheet picture pack with teaching notes and a teacher's resource book. Together, these elements offer several flexible learning pathways through Britain 1750-1900 to support a wide range of pupils: from those who have severe learning difficulties with reading (for whom the picture pack provides a minimum-entitlement "Britain 1750-1900" unit through the use of pictorial source material alone), to those who simply need more structured exercises or simpler source material than their peers are using. These materials can be used alongside SHP's core textbook, "Peace and War" or entirely independently.
