Year Level: 1
The Year 1 curriculum provides a study of present and past family life within the context of
the students own world. Students learn about similarities and differences in family life by
comparing the present with the past. They begin to explore the links, and the changes that
occur, over time.
The content provides opportunities to develop historical understanding through key concepts
including continuity and change, cause and effect, perspectives, empathy and
significance. These concepts may be investigated within a particular historical context to
facilitate an understanding of the past and to provide a focus for historical inquiries.
The history content at this year level involves two strands: Historical Knowledge, and
Understanding and Historical Skills. These strands are interrelated and should be taught in an
integrated way; they may be integrated across learning areas and in ways that are appropriate
to specific local contexts. The order and detail in which they are taught are programming
decisions.
Key Inquiry Questions
A framework for developing students historical knowledge, understanding and skills is
provided by inquiry questions. The key inquiry questions at this year level are:
How has family life changed or remained the same over time?
How can we show that the present is different from or similar to the past?
How do we describe the sequence of time?
Differences in family structures and roles today, and how these have changed or
remained the same over time (ACHHK028)
Distinguish between the past, present and future (ACHHS032)
Pose questions about the past using sources provided (ACHHS033)
LESSON OBJECTIVES
By the end of this lesson students will demonstrate their ability to:
Explored a range of sources and identified the roles of significant older people in
families
Examined how family structures can consist of people from each human life stage
Discussed the term generation

many years is each date going up by? 50, 60, 70(it is going
up in tens).
Explain to students that when we go up in periods of ten
years it is known as a decade. To ensure students
understanding of this concept ask:
- If we went up in periods of 5 years is that a decade?
Why/why not?
- Is 1940 1950 a decade? Why/why not?
- How many years are in a decade?
Discuss with students where 2014 is on the timeline. Ask the
students if 2014 is in the past (has happened), future (will
happen) or present (happening right now).
On the class timeline (pinned on the wall) stick the present
tag on 2014.
Examine the dates 1950 2000. Discuss whether or not these
dates are the past, present or future. Stick the past tag on
these dates.
Examine the date 2020. Once again, ask students if this is the
past, present or future. Ask students to explain why it is the
future (because it has not happened yet).
Explain to students that they are now going to examine how
family structures have changed and stayed the same over the
decades.
Explore a range of images of families (slideshow) and
discuss the features of each family to:
- Determine which features in the images tell us which
decade the families belong to (e.g. clothing, hairstyle,
family structure)
- Discuss and identify the many different types of families,
including nuclear, single parent or blended and the
different family structures in other cultures.
Direct students attention towards the easel. As a class write a
serious of questions that could be asked to determine:
- Decades parents, grandparents and other family members
have lived.
- The structure of parents and grandparents or other
special peoples families when they were younger and
about the roles that they have had within their family
structures as a child.
Explain to students that they will have 10 minutes to use the
play dough at their desks to create their family. Model to
students how to complete this task i.e. pre-create play dough
figures of my parents, two brothers and myself. Inform
students that after 10 minutes they will report back to the
class and share their family structures with the class.
Monitor and support students during this time.
