Here's a short, engaging starter activity aimed at lessons with new Politics students over the coming weeks. Entitled 'Boris or Borisn't', the activity presents 6 statements on screen about the new Prime Minister Boris Johnson. Students must decide whether each statement is true or false.
After the answer is revealed, a further question is posed to support wider discussion with your students. As this is an editable powerpoint file, feel free to alter these questions.
