Year 10 History

Course Description

History is the study of the past in order to understand the present.  The Year 10 History course is about how we learn about history and try to put together the puzzle of the past using the different sources we have.  Skills developed include critical thinking, forming valid and supported conclusions, formulating an argument and essay writing.  Students are encouraged to consider a range of different perspectives including their own.  A series of short, engaging topics will be covered throughout the year.  Contexts will vary depending on student interest but will be chosen from across the broader themes of ancient history, local history, modern history and women's history.  Titiro whakamuri kia mohio ai koe. Te huarahi kei mua i a koe. You know not your future until you know your past.
