In Year 2 HASS, students investigate their own patch of the world: a significant local person, building or site from the past, the features of places and people's connections to them, and what it means to belong to a community. These Year 2 HASS lessons cover past and present, places and spaces, and being part of a community as ready-to-present slide decks.

Each lesson is aligned to the Australian Curriculum v9.0 Humanities and Social Sciences and lists its objectives up front, drawing on the Year 2 history and geography focus. Slides balance short explanations with discussion prompts and simple inquiry tasks such as comparing old and new photographs of the same place.

The decks come alive when they are local, so open them in Chalkie and swap in your town's landmark, your school's history or your community's helpers before presenting. Planning stays light; the lesson lands close to home.
