Practice exam papers and then look at the mark schemes.

You do a source question;

1. You need knowledge of the period so you can understand the context of the questions and input what the background is.

2. You also need to practice your evaluative skills on assessing the sources.

What is their balue?? What do they tell us? How useful?

Here are some notes I got given in class on how to structure each type of question. https://www.scribd.com/document/379506661/Scan

Also, if you go to http://www.physicsandmathstutor.com/past-papers/gcse-history/cie-igcse-paper-2/ there are 3 June 2012 papers on the League of Nations.

http://www.johndclare.net/league_of_nations8_Sources.htm is another useful resource.

For now, just make sure you know the topic well by revising key dates (for context) and the general attitudes of each country to the League in the 1920s and 1930s. I'd personally focus on Abyssinia and Manchuria.
