This outstanding resource has been designed for students studying the rise of Hitler and the increasing popularity of the Nazi Party in Germany’s elections. It can be used as a starter, consolidation exercise, plenary or even a homework activity. This activity is designed to appeal to students of all abilities but is particularly aimed at middle to lower ability students who need help in structuring their arguments using the PEE model - Point - Example - Explain.
When you purchase this resource it includes a fully editable one page Microsoft Word document with a learning aim and six points and matching examples and explanations to the question, why did people vote for the Nazis? The topics covered include the Treaty of Versailles, economic depression, hyperinflation, German’s electoral system, increasing unpopularity of the Socialist Party and Nazi propaganda machine. I have also linked in an optional video clip to accompany this resource from YouTube.
Depending upon the ability of the class, it should take no more than 20 minutes to do the card sort. Afterwards they could have a go at doing an extended question answering the question: ‘Why did the German people vote for the Nazi Party in the 1930s?’
The aims and objectives are:
Theme: The Rise of Hitler
Know: Why did people vote for the Nazis?
Understand: Why did the popularity of the Nazi Party increase?
Evaluate: Which factor was the most important?
WILF - What Am I Looking For?
