Year 5 and Year 6 AC History- stories of immigration explored through Drama and role-play.

Role-play is a powerful way to help young students develop historical understanding. Barton & Levstik (2005) in their book, "Doing History", suggest that students should have the responsibility for creating the drama based on their own investigation. So, rather than giving students a ready-made script, make sure that they play an active role in the creation of the script. This kind of activity requires historical inquiry where students use evidence to construct a story of the past. This Unit of Work provides a useful scaffold for using drama and role-play to teach history.

Drama is an excellent way of teaching historical events as it forces the student to become the character in the situation. This resource outlines how the drama process could work in a Humanities lesson on immigration (as it was inspired by the Immigration Museum). It includes focus questions as well as goes through the history of settlement in Australia. I think this is an inspiring resource because it's innovative and engaging for the students. I'd use this drama resource in conjunction with other resources (such as videos, images, texts, etc) when teaching about this topic in my classroom.

This unit is about helping students compare their own childhood with the childhoods of their parents and grandparents. To do this, they will look at activities done each day during the week and on weekends, toys, games, music devices, school and life in general for themselves, a parent and a grandparent. There is a lot of dialogue between older family members and the students as they share their thoughts and memories with the children.

(ACARA) Beginning with the history of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, students examine European exploration and colonisation in Australia and throughout the world up to the early 1800s. Students examine the impact of exploration on other societies, how these societies interacted with newcomers, and how these experiences contributed to their cultural diversity
