This unit investigates how Brisbane has changed through time. Students examine how Brisbane and the lives of people who live there have changed. The timeline activity provides a hands-on experience mapping the abstract concept of time to 2-dimensional and even 3-dimensional space, which helps students to understand the concept of time and its duration. The timeline activity also revises the number-line concept as developed in the Mathematics Curriculum, as well as metric units of length, numbers into the 10,000s, addition and subtraction and repeated operations. Students will undertake a guided Scientific Investigation to examine types of evidence of daily life in Brisbane in the past. The Scientific Investigation will introduce students to the Scientific Process and how conclusions are drawn from examinations of data, including artefacts.

A student workbook is provided for the students to fill in during this unit. This workbook, as well as the students’ discussions in class and participation in the activities, forms the assessment for this unit. The student workbook can either be printed and stapled together, with a copy given to each student; or printed out and given to students as loose pages as each lesson proceeds. These pages could be glued into an exercise book. Finally, the student workbook could be displayed digitally and students could copy down their answers into their exercise books.

Multi-Year Level Integration

This unit is broadly compatible with the Unit F.3 Children Long Ago. It can also be used with Unit 1.3 Families Through Time, as well as Unit 2.3 Daily Life In the Past. Unit 2.3 and Unit 3.3 cover much of the same material and have the same activities occurring in the same weeks. There is a slight difference in focus, with Unit 2.3 focusing on daily life in general and Unit 3.3 focusing on Brisbane, but this difference is reflected mainly in the student workbooks and teachers in multi-year level classes can emphasise the relative importance of each set of information. These units are designed to be taught together easily, without disruption to the flow of the class.
