Welcome. Year 8 students are encouraged to post to this Weblog. In order for your post to be accepted, a certain level of merit is expected. Use the guidelines below to ensure your success.
Each Post should:
- Identify your personal area of interest in year 8 history topics.
- Refer to a link on the Internet or Wiki
- State an insight or reason why you found this link useful, interesting or challenging.
You don’t have to follow the order above or be formulaic about it – just be sure you include this kind of content.
An example might be:
Because I am really interested in pirates, I’m focusing on William Dampier. Of course there is a good background page on Wikipedia, but I thought it would be interesting to see if I could understand Dampier’s own A Voyage to New Holland. Skimming through it, I see drawings of birdlife. This could be something that a do my project on. In fact, I might try to add information to Wikipedia’s section on the The Roebuck Expedition.
Excellent! We all look forward to your historical insights.
