How to use

Australian History Notebook

These pages have been created to enhance your study of

Australian History. They have been designed by an Australian

homeschooling family who have discovered the joys of Note-

booking. As a Mum trialing this new idea in my home, I was

amazed to see my children eager to engage their creativity and

make each page something special. School was becoming fun

and they would look forward to adding new pages to their

growing Notebook. Further, I noted my children would often

flick back through their work and re-read pages, thus reinforc-

ing and reviewing the information written. Notebooking has

proved its worth.

Your Notebooking style is limited only by your imagina-

tion. There is no right or wrong way to do it. To aid you, we of-

fer some suggestions to help you get started:

• On some of the pages you will find a blank shape. These

shapes are for you to add in your own pictures and/or

drawings. You may find pictures in old travel magazines,

old history books you are happy to cut up, stickers, or

even the internet. Alternatively, your child may like to

draw or trace pictures in the spaces and colour them in.

The pictures we have used are all in the Public Domain

and are copyright free, to the best of our knowledge.

• There is often a title or border that can be coloured in as

well. Add whatever you think will help your child to enjoy

the process and be satisfied with their results.

Versatile and practical, these pages can be used with any

Australian history curriculum. We recommend using them from

grades 3-12. We hope you enjoy your learning experience.

Have fun and be creative!

Aboriginals




Have a look at some aboriginal art on the internet or in a book. Imagine the time it would take to paint all those dots! Also, notice the images of nature portrayed in these pictures. Why don’t you have a go at imitating that style below? Perhaps you could draw the family pet, or a favourite animal? Use earthy colours with occasional splashes of brightness.

The Duyfken

SIR HENRY PARKES

“Why should not the name of an Australian citizen be equal to that of a Briton?.... Why should not the name of an Australian citizen be equal to that of the proudest country under the sun?.... But there is something more. Make yourselves a united people, appear before the world as one, and the dream of going ’home’ would die away… We should have home within our shores.”

(Henry Parkes speech calling for Federation) TENTERFIELD ORATION 1889



SYMBOLS OF FEDERATION



Imagine that you are the first Australian Prime Minister. What laws might you make for your country?
