The British Legion have downloadable teaching resources for History and Citizenship

The Royal British Legion School's Pack is designed to assist teachers to introduce specific themes into the classroom.  Although it primarily covers the History and Citizenship curricula, it can also be used to support literacy and aspects of PSHE and Religious Studies.  The pack can be used as a starting point for certain topics, or to inspire primary and secondary teachers to complementary routes on tackling these themes.

The six topics support the current areas of the National Curriculum for the following units:

History - Key Stages 1 and 2, Units 9, 13, 17 and 20.  Key Stage 3, The First and Second World Wars, including the Holocaust.

Citizenship - Key stage 1-4: The identities behind Britain today.  Understanding Human Rights.  Challenging racism and discrimination.  War, conflict and peace. Identity and diversity. Issues supporting rights and responsibilities.

This year the British Legion have produced a main pack and there are also six posters to generate activities about History and Citizenship both inside and outside the classroom.  There is also a DVD/CD-Rom disk set to provide extra information available to order from their website.
