activity 1
identifying technology and its use
historical skills and activities:
• Explore a range of sources about the past
• Students identify and compare features of objects from the past and present
We now have a more recent image of troops departing Townsville on their way to a peace-keeping
mission in the Solomon Islands. There is also a new bank of words to go with our new image.
Object list example: Plane, Truck, Military Uniforms
1. The Venn Diagram is broken into three different sections: Past, Same and Present. Your job is to
place the words from the object list into the relevant section of the Venn Diagram.
- If you think the technology object was only used in the past, then place it in the ‘Past’ section.
- If you think the technology object used today is the same as it was in the past, then place it in
the ‘Same’ section.
- If you think the object is new and wasn’t used in the Past, then place it in the ‘Present’ section.
2. Select one object from each section of your Venn Diagram
• For the ‘Past’ object, explain why this piece of technology is no longer used today.
• For the ‘Same’ object, describe how this technology object has changed since the past.
• For the ‘Present’ object, describe how this piece of technology is used? Identify the old form of
technology it may have replaced.
3. Do you think that technology has become better in the present? If so, or if not, explain why.

1. Using a map, locate and label the places mentioned in the letter.
2. Where was the soldier (country, town) when he wrote this letter, where do you think the receiver
was living?
3. During World War One, all letters sent to and from soldiers would be handled by a central military
office in Australia and then in Britain.
Explain how a letter written by someone living in Australia could make it all the way to Britain in
1917. Sequence the events which would occur from the writing of the letter through to the reading of
the letter by the receiver. Include any steps you think are vital to the process. List the towns or cities
that this letter would need to go through in order to reach its final destination.
4. Describe what could have slowed down the delivery of the letters to Private Dean and his family in
Australia.

memories, community and remembrance.

Content >>
Days and weeks celebrated or commemorated in Australia and the importance of
symbols and emblems.
Students >>
Students examine and explore documents and images from the earliest Anzac Day

Days throughout the twentieth and twenty-first century to consider how Anzac Day has
been celebrated over time.

descriptors as a guide.
2. Using the Y-Chart, describe what you think Anzac Day has looked like, sounded like and felt like
over time.
3. Explain why you think we continue to celebrate Anzac Day 100 years after the landing at Gallipoli.

Include any activity; perhaps you went to the dawn service, went to the parade, stayed home all
day and watched Anzac marches on TV, watched the football, had a BBQ with your family and
friends, or perhaps you did nothing. Then in a paragraph reflect on and describe why Anzac Day
is important to you and your family.

Citizenship and Empire in World War One
Content >>
Experiences of Australian democracy and citizenship, including the status and rights
of Aboriginal people and/or Torres Strait Islanders, migrants, women, and children.
Students >>
Students examine images from World War One in Townsville and on Armistice Day and

‘Honour of the dead use of term country and less of empire and Twenty Years a Nation’, Townsville
Daily Bulletin, April 26, 1935, p 7. Search trove.nla.gov.au for ‘Australia Honors Her Dead’,
http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article61982921
1. The Townsville Daily Bulletin demonstrates two aspects about Anzac Day which are interesting.
Firstly, it provides the sermons from the church services held throughout Townsville on that day.
In 1935, Anzac Day was largely a day of sombre remembrance led by the various church leaders.
Do you think that this is still the case? Who leads your school’s Anzac Day service?
2. The second interesting aspect of this edition of the Townsville Daily Bulletin is the smaller section
entitled ‘Twenty Years a Nation’. Despite Federation occurring in 1901, this paper credits the
landing on Gallipoli as the principle moment in which Australian ‘nationhood’ was born.
Read ‘Twenty Years A Nation’ and ‘Returned Soldiers Gathering’. As a group, construct a chart of

there was in the sources from the previous activity? Record your answers in your book.
