Learning to investigate the History of Cyprus through Artefacts: Teacher's Guide and Museum Activity Booklet for Students
The series of lesson plans and accompanying resources in the Teacher's Guide is designed to help teachers to introduce students to an investigative approach to studying history. Through seven lesson plans students can explore ways of using artefacts as evidence of their own historical inquiries. The lessons form a coherent journey, gradually preparing students to engage in constructing their own arguments in the final lesson.
Learning to think historically is both challenging and exciting. Students need to learn disciplined techniques so that they can construct and support their own claims and challenge and support the claims of others. The lesson plans therefore, offer teachers a detailed step-by-step guide to supporting students in these new ways of thinking. Varied and interesting activities for students are also offered in the Student's Booklet, accompanied by teacher guidance on how to ask questions, lead discussions, reflect on the quality of student thinking and reinforce new learning.
