KS3 Oracy Talking Points: History & Geography | 12 Discussions

Twelve ready-to-teach discussions that build historical and geographical judgement through structured talk: judging the past by today's standards, who owns museum objects, whether events were inevitable, statues, borders, who pays for climate damage, managed retreat, gentrification and more. Each Talking Point gives an original stimulus, question ladder, both sides at equal strength, vocabulary, sentence stems and a full Teacher Briefing for non-specialists. Directly supports interpretation, causation, significance and geographical decision-making AND develops oracy against the four strands of the Oracy Skills Framework, ready for 2028. Includes teacher guide, 10 talk protocol cards, subject background & further reading, pupil talk log, curriculum map and an illustrated 63-slide display deck.
