Use the backwards design and CASK(e) model
Stage 1 - Identify the overarching and essential questions the students need to achieve / solve / answer e.g.
How do we ensure everyone throughout the world has equal access to clean water?
What does it mean to be British?
Does History repeat itself?
Are all important decisions in history made by white men?
Is there a novel in everyone?
In delivering this – pose key questions – encourage pupils to suggest information that should be investigated to become co-constructors and give them a purpose.
CASK(E) – see planning table below
Stage 2 - Identify knowledge and skills
Stage 3 - Identify the range of acceptable evidence that the student has met the standards / achieve that understanding (build in not bolt on at the end)
Stage 4 - Develop medium term plans (sheme of work) / LPs
Stage 5 - Develop competencies / attributes which present themselves through the development of the lessons
