Abstract	Despite having built a sustained focus on historical thinking into their planning for progression across Years 7 to 13, Rachel Foster and Sarah Gadd remained frustrated with stubborn weaknesses in the evidential thinking of students in examination classes.

Traditional guidance on paragraph structuring such as "P.E.E." or "P.E.G.E.X." seemed not only inadequate but part of the problem. In order to address the problem, Foster and Gadd devised an ingenious plan. Goodbye P.E.E. and hello shopping trolleys … (As Provided).
