"Good morning, class. Today, we will be learning about the concept of collectivisation in the USSR. Our objectives for this lesson are to understand the reasons and consequences of collectivisation and to analyse primary sources related to it."
"Stalin implemented collectivisation in the Soviet Union in the 1920s and 1930s. The goal was to turn individual peasant farms into large collective farms owned by the state. Peasants were forced to give up their land and livestock and work on the collective farms. Let's take a look at some primary source documents to get a better understanding."
"Why do you think the Soviet government implemented collectivisation? Let's discuss as a class." (facilitate a class discussion)
"Please take a printable card from the stack I am going to hand out. You will be filling in the answers to some questions related to collectivisation during the lesson."
"The consequences of collectivisation were numerous. The Soviet Union became one of the world's largest wheat producers, but there was also a large loss of life due to forced relocation and death by famine. What other consequences can you think of? Let's discuss."
"Please pass your completed cards to the front. I will be checking them for completion and accuracy."
"In summary, we discussed the concept of collectivisation in the Soviet Union, the reasons and consequences of collectivisation, and analysed primary source documents related to it. Please let me know if you have any questions."
