120 Great History Projects

History turns into something to build, cook and wear in 120 Great History Projects, where each era is approached through making rather than memorising. Struan Reid and Rachel Halstead set out a wide run of hands-on activities drawn from real historical practice, so readers can construct models, try crafts, assemble costumes and prepare recipes linked to the periods and cultures under discussion. Step illustrations and photographs accompany the instructions, and the historical background sits beside each project instead of being separated into a chapter of its own. What to expect: • Projects tied to identifiable periods, cultures, inventions and traditions • Making, cooking, modelling and costume work rather than worksheets • Hundreds of illustrations and photographs supporting the instructions • Background information placed next to the activity it belongs to Well suited to school-age readers, homeschooling families, classroom activity planning and anyone who learns history best by doing it, stocked by Boipoka.
