Foundation Learning about Family History

WOW, it is term 2! The Foundation students have been at school for 42 days already. Time is flying. 

This term the Foundation students will be learning about 'History'.  They will be learning about:

• Who the people in their family are, where they were born and raised and how they are related to each other. 
• The different structures of families and family groups today, and what they have in common. 
• How they, their family and friends commemorate past events that are important to them. 
• How the stories of families and the past can be communicated, for example through photographs, artifacts, books, oral histories, digital media, and museums.

In our first lesson on Wednesday, we looked at 'Who we are' and 'How we are all different on the outside but the same on the inside'.

Below are some self-portraits the Foundation students drew.
