Course | MAKING THE MOST OF HISTORICAL ENQUIRY | |||
Led by | Stuart aka Mr T is an experienced primary teacher and history specialist | |||
Details | The recent Ofsted subject report identified developing historical enquiry as a recommendation for the teaching history in schools. It identified that some historical questions were poorly grounded. This session emphasises that enquiry is not just a question… but a carefully constructed question rooted in the historical discipline which facilitates the methodology of how the past is studied. It also includes practical approaches on how this can be embedded in primary classrooms. Session overview: • What is historical enquiry? • Framing purposeful questions • Sequencing lessons like chapters of the story we are choosing to teach • Supporting children to acquire knowledge and focus on the core • Knowing the endpoints and working towards them Stuart aka Mr T is an experienced primary teacher and history specialist.
