SHP Primary History Conference

I'm already looking forward to the SHP Primary History Conference on the 21st March. As with the conference last year, it will be held at The British Museum. I've booked workshops looking at evidence, Egyptians and using gallery space to develop historical understanding.

The keynote speaker is Richard Woff from the British Museum. His introductory speech is entitled:- Time travellers: teaching primary history with objects.

In it, he will explain the thinking behind the British Museum’s latest resources project: Teaching History with 100 Objects. His session will demonstrate the potential of objects for motivating and grounding children’s learning in history
Richard Woff is the Head of Project, Teaching History with 100 Objects
