Description
This unit includes everything you need to teach an 'Importance of the Past' unit for Year Two HASS for the entire term! Paired with my 'Technology Over Time' unit, all of your History content is covered. This particular unit explores significant people and places across Australia (see note if you're outside Aus!). Students investigate how these people and places can teach us about the past, how and why they are significant and develop research skills through a variety of activities.
Note: If you are an international purchaser, I have included templates/powerpoint slides to help you adapt the lessons to places and people relevant to your location. However, please keep in mind that this resource was designed with The Australian curriculum in mind.
