Abstract

A sense of history is inextricably entwined with a sense of place. How might we best support primary teachers in using their immediate location to teach history? We share case studies of our work in initial teacher education to model and exemplify how key concepts in a history curriculum (e.g. chronology, change, cause and consequence) can be 'made real' through interactive place-based pedagogies. This workshop will be suitable for primary teachers, student teachers and teacher educators.​

Learning outcomes:​

to reflect on how best to support student teachers and early career teachers in
primary history​

to know how key concepts in primary history may be taught through place-based
pedagogies​

to take part in place-based learning activities suitable for primary history lessons​
