About the Edexcel GCSE History The American West Study Guide (Ages 14-16)

  • Covers the American West, c1835-1895 option on the Edexcel GCSE History course
  • 48 pages of revision notes for students in Years 10 and 11
  • Hundreds of questions and a realistic practice paper, with full answers

If your student is revising the American West for Edexcel GCSE History, this is the guide that takes them through it.

Students answer questions about the 1851 Fort Laramie Treaty, complete a table and flowchart
Students complete a table and flowchart about the 1851 Fort Laramie Treaty, then explain the impact of the Pike's Peak Gold Rush.

Those exams come at the end of Year 11, so the American West needs to feel settled well before then. The guide breaks the option into short sections, from early reservations to the Development of the Plains, with notes brief enough to read in one sitting.

Three exam-style questions on the Development of the Plains, requiring students to explain consequences, analyse key events
Students answer three exam-style questions on the Development of the Plains, testing their ability to analyse historical events and explain consequences.

Questions follow the notes, so your student reads a little and then checks what stuck. The 48-page printed book holds hundreds of questions and a realistic practice paper, with full answers for marking their own work. One page asks for a table and flowchart on the 1851 Fort Laramie Treaty.

A worked example shows how to answer a two-mark question about the First Transcontinental Railroad
A worked example shows how to answer a two-mark question about the First Transcontinental Railroad, with annotations explaining each part of the response.

The worked answers do a job the notes cannot. One annotates a two-mark answer on the First Transcontinental Railroad, part by part, so your student sees where marks come from. Exam tips and an Online Edition of the whole book are included.
