Take your class for an exciting, hands-on exploration through history! The History box 4 uses an innovative method to bring history to life, providing Year 4 teachers and students with an opportunity to redefine how this subject is taught and learned. Utilising the high-impact teaching strategies of collaborative learning and questioning, you will:

- immerse students in further exploration through inquiry-based tasks, with clear indicators on which inquiry skills they are utilising.
- consolidate and assess students’ progress with ideas for formative and summative assessment as well as extension activities provided within the teacher’s guide.
