Elective Home Education (EHE) allows you to explore learning in flexible and personal ways. This lesson plan, based on Plagues, Poxes, and Pandemics — The Worst Outbreaks in History, gives you everything you need to guide your learner through the topic.

With reading tasks, thought-provoking questions, and creative projects, you’ll help your learner understand how pandemics shaped the world. Use the activities to spark discussion, inspire curiosity, and link past outbreaks to modern life. Remember, this is a flexible plan — feel free to adapt it to suit your child’s interests, pace, and confidence.
