So we ended our week of historical enquiry by learning how to evaluate different sources of evidence from the past based on the criteria of relevant, rich and reliable (the 3Rs).
First, we looked at different types of evidence and evaluated them based on the 3Rs. We had to be able to justify our decisions to the class…
Next, we played a game of Artefact Pursuit. We had to work in teams to examine and evaluate different sources of evidence from the Scottish Wars of Independence. We then had to create a group poster that displayed our findings. We had to consider whether the source was Primary or Secondary and we also had to decide how relevant, rich and reliable it was. We were being timed so it was quite exciting trying to play as many squares as possible in the time given…

Some of the squares on the board had ‘Wildcards’ and we had to carry out other tasks such as internet research…
We had great fun with our artefact pursuit!
Mr Young stopped by today to see us and he was really impressed with our knowledge of historical enquiry.
Some evaluations from today’s lessons:
I liked the change in group. I also loved that kind of game. Great!
Today was fun. I learned a lot about primary and secondary sources. No bad feedback.
Loved lesson!
Amazing! Amazing! Can we do it again.
Thanks P6!
What an amazing day you had primary six. Well done everyone.
It’s great to read what you all think about your learning.
