My Place – 20 years on
Nadia Wheatley and Donna Rawlins’ My Place has been republished to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of this special title which encompasses so much that is innately Australian.
Covering a wide range of topics for use in the classroom, such as Place and Space, Social Justice, Culture and identity this much-loved book has been updated with a timeline that carries the history through to 2008. It can be used across the curriculum in all phases of development.
To complement the book Walker books has produced the Classroom Ideas PDF available from their website.
DET teachers could use this book in conjunction with the resources available through the K-10 Syllabus – The Northbridge History Project and Time Lines and Pathways to the Past: Find Yourself in History
