Resource presentation day!
Thanks for the great presentations on a resource of your choice today. Next week we will finish the presentations (thanks to those who said they will do their presentation next week). All of the presentations were so good I really did not want ot cut people short. All amazingly presented and applied.
The focus of the resource presentation was to select a resource and do the following when showcasing to the workshop:
* connect the resource to the Australian Curriculum for history and geography
* describe the resource and its purpose
* justify the use of the resource
* discuss any limitations of the resource
* be creative in showcasing the resource.
Here are just some of the resources presented in the workshop today - will post the rest next week.
Internet resources showcased
* Australian history mysteries
* Australian War Memorial
* Classroom photographs over time - and many more photos
* Kidsgeo games The Oceana game
* Bound for South Australia
