A free teachers’ resource pack from [Flame Keepers](https://discover-more.co.uk/projects/flame-keepers/) is now available, so Island schools can teach the story of the Ronson factory in Newport through the voices of the people who worked there.

The pack is written for Years 5 and 6, and all but one of the activities have notes for adapting them to Years 3 and 4. It asks pupils a big question: why was the factory so successful, and why did it close?

## What’s inside

-   A five-session plan with learning objectives and quick checks
-   Background notes, a timeline and a map
-   A vocabulary sheet of factory terms, from _float girl_ to _piecework_
-   Ten historic photographs and documents, each with questions
-   Five activities with printable sheets, including a production line challenge and a look at why the factory closed

It supports a local history study and links to English, maths, geography and PSHE. The pack was reviewed by Creative Island Education.

## Free to use

Like the interviews, the pack is licensed CC BY-NC-ND 4.0. Teachers can print, copy and share it for non-commercial teaching, with credit.
