Summary:

Were two bullets the cause of 20 million deaths in WW1? An innovative causal reasoning model that stretches all pupils, including the more able, is used to explore the complexity of causes of WW1 in a Year 9 history lesson. Causal reasoning is a key conceptual skill in history and an area where all pupils need to be stretched. This Year 9 history class applies the skills, vocabulary and language that they developed in a previous non-content model to the causes of WW1. Building on the work of NAGTY History consultant Arthur Chapman, James Woodcock, Head of History at Cottenham Village College, takes his mixed ability class through causal diagrams and language-development exercises to enable all pupils, including the most able, to advance their conceptual thinking.
