Student Achievement
Year 9 Humanities
09 May
As part of a Year 9 Humanities unit - Making a Nation Australia up to 1914, the following students, Finn Dickson, Megan Robinson and Isabella Brown- Kenyon worked on the research topic of the Eureka Rebellion. All students in the group were encouraged to be creative with their presentations. The photo’s demonstrate part of the student presentation and what the students did. This included a diorama which took approximately 4-5 hours to complete, a wonderful poster and an oral presentation and worksheet. The students all had an excellent understanding of the topic and were able to educate and inform their peers well. The photo’s come from a display in the Library currently.
It should be noted that in the same period there was a student presentation on the topic of the First Fleet and a wonderful 3 and a half minute video on the whole history of Australia from 1788-2023 from one student. It was you tube quality. The previous lesson 3 groups of students designed and ran games for their peers. It is wonderful to see student creativity in their learning.
