Designed for classroom teachers who are not history specialists, this book provides practical, adaptable scaffolds and ideas to make history inquiry stimulating and accessible.

Drawing from the Australian Curriculum, Connecting with History provides:

- strategies that foster the development of key historical skills, knowledge and understanding

- advice on using strategies within an inquiry framework

- curriculum snapshots showing the strategies in action in the classroom

- brief, easy-to-use formats

- tools to support students in thinking about what they learn

- suggestions for adapting the ideas further.

This is the resource you will want at hand when you are planning what and how to teach, and looking for ways to engage and inspire life-long learners in history.
