My two new babies...Welcome to the world Henry Goodfellow born Friday 12.04.24 and #ChangingHistoriesKS3 (to be released at the end of May). One of them is gorgeous and the love of my life, the other is my newborn son 🤣

We're beyond excited to share our sample booklet from #ChangingHistoriesKS3 Connected Worlds, c.1000–c.1600 🎉 Take a look: ow.ly/jQzw50Re7hL. With evocative storytelling and beautifully designed pages, this truly breaks the mould of #KS3History textbooks

The contents list for the first #ChangingHistoriesKS3 book is now available! 😍 Take a look: ow.ly/fKcy50R8zaV

You can now read 4 sample chaps of Bk 1 (Y7) of my new textbook series #ChangingHistoriesKS3 ow.ly/2aQn50Rk4Jt
*Story & scholarship integrated, not plonked together. *Chapters either EQ-led or mini 'story summaries'.
*Key places & people recur across the year's course.

The most exciting news! I still remember the moment I first heard about the #ChangingHistoriesKS3 series, and first read one of its chapters.

It continues to be utterly transformative for me and my pupils.

Read four chapters from #ChangingHistoriesKS3 from HodderHistory Christine Counsell and a team of 20 authors. Their sample booklet from the first book, Connected Worlds, is available here: ow.ly/2aQn50Rk4Jt

Stories are so powerful but really good ones are super difficult and time-consuming to write. Fortunately, a team of superstar authors have done the hard work for you! Check out the stunning sample chapters from #ChangingHistoriesKS3 below. Some further thoughts in a short 🧵

The story of Nur Jahan is truly fascinating. I can't wait for everyone to see Paula Lobo (Worth) 's incredible textbook chapter on her in #ChangingHistoriesKS3 Expanding Worlds c.1600-1900 (Book 2 out next year).

A little sneak peek of a page from #ChangingHistoriesKS3 😍 Full sample booklet coming very soon... 👀

Delighted that we can now share the contents for HodderHistory #ChangingHistoriesKS3 Book 1 (for Year 7). What can you see? Short 🧵

And 10 authors from the #ChangingHistoriesKS3 team are delivering sessions at the HA conference in a few weeks time! One word: QUALITY!!!! Catherine Priggs Elizabeth Carr Christine Counsell Mike Hill Teni Gogo Paula Lobo (Worth) Jonathan Grande Hugh Richards Jacob Olivey Alex Ford

Josh Vallance Glad you think #ChangingHistoriesKS3 can help Josh. The stylish narratives, the rich detail for worldbuilding & better historical judgement as pupils bath in material culture, the lesson-by-lesson build to an EQ modelling a mode of disciplinary reasoning are all designed to help.

Giedre McMurtrie Isaac Moore (on Threads as isaacmoore7775) Great to hear! Lots of spacing in #ChangingHistoriesKS3 . Interestingly it occurs v naturally in history cos of constant revisiting, direct & indirect, thro converging or continuing narratives eg constant refs back to an early chapter on Islam, at intervals through the Y7 book

Very much inspired by #ChangingHistoriesKS3 - they want to tell stories of Alexios and Mansa Musa amongst others…
