History teachers first grade

Hi everyone,

If you are a history teacher for the first grade of secondary education (ages approx. 12–14), this post is specifically for you. But anyone is welcome!!

Which chapter or historical period do students find the most difficult to understand or tend to perform worst on?

If possible, could you also briefly explain why you think that is the case (lack of interest, abstract concepts, difficulty with chronology, teaching materials, etc.)?

Of course, if you are not a teacher but still have relevant insights or experience, feel free to respond as well.

Thank you very much in advance!
