Teaching Resources
ILN’s history team have worked with a number of local schools including the City of London School and the City of London School for Girls while developing this site, engaging in assembly Q&As and classroom sessions. Below are a handful of the lesson ideas that came out of those sessions, and examples of creative writing based on images provided to key stage 2 pupils. We have also provided a small selection of links and images to support topics on the English and History curricula. Over the coming months we will be adding to this material, to develop a website that teachers and pupils will find truly useful as a teaching/learning resource. We warmly welcome any feedback from teachers and education providers. Help us by uploading your ideas below.
