Back to school: teaching history with 100 objects

Teaching history with 100 objects is the result of a partnership between museums across the UK and the British Museum. The  aim is to bring the subject to life in classroom, and to agreeab teach history to schoolchildren

Dan Snow, historian and broadcaster who is supporting the project said:  “The wealth of sources, images and links will enliven any lesson and foster a deeper understanding and love of the past in anyone who comes into contact with them,” he said.

Primary and secondary school children, and their teachers, will now be able to access images of the artefacts online, in resources coordinated by experts at the museum.
