Students need to feel actively connected to each unit - Active Learning.
Try to involve the local level and the use of primary sources to achieve this. Always try to find 2 versions of the same idea to gain perspective.
When planning a unit look at the key concepts and related concepts based on what you want the students to understand.
How are these linked? (key concept to key concept and also related concept to key concept)
Writing Lines of Inquiry:
1st Layer - Forms
2nd Layer - Uses
3rd Layer - Practices
HWOO - 1st unit in the odd year
- Common Sense Media - resources
- Culture Iceberg

WWAIPAT - 3rd unit even year
- Provocation idea - Exploration of a place that is unknown to the students. Work through the lines of inquiry to do with this practical example and then apply them to other well-known explorations.
