The Dictionary of Sydney is a rich source of history for students and teachers and we are pleased to extend our resources to include units of study for primary and secondary students.
We believe that an understanding of Australian history cultivates a rich foundation for school students to acquire an understanding of global perspectives and to honour our past and present heritage.

PRIMARY
A key component of the general capabilities outlined in the Australian curriculum is promoting critical and creative thinking. Our primary units of study integrate key inquiry questions suggested in the syllabus and include teaching and learning experiences based on CREATE: Appreciation for Learning Theory .
Developed by Christina Aloisio (MEdLead, BTeachLib, DipArts).
SECONDARY
Our secondary programs are based on Dictionary of Sydney articles. These programs include a PDF of the program outlining the activity and in some cases, as indicated, resources that have been developed to support the program. Each program outlines the links to both the Australian Curriculum and the current NSW Syllabus and includes key inquiry questions, an estimation of the time required to complete the activities, and appropriate hyperlinks to the Dictionary of Sydney.
Developed by Prudence MacLeod for the Dictionary of Sydney with support from the Sydney Mechanic School of Arts.
