Selectors and Squatters Lesson

In this lesson, students will gain an understanding of the significance of the roles of squatters and selectors in Australian history. They will develop an awareness of the agricultural and pastoral industries, and the key role played by the “squattocracy”. Students will have the opportunity to achieve this through choosing their own method of learning, from source analysis and research options, as well as the chance to engage in extension activities. This lesson includes a self-marking quiz for students to demonstrate their learning.
