REVEREND ISAAC WAUCHOPE

Oral accounts as historical sources

In this lesson plan, learners will study two transcripts of oral sources and will be encouraged to appreciate the insights and feelings that these sources offer us. They will also study a "minute" from Louis Botha, the Prime Minister at the time of the disaster, and resolutions passed by a Christian African community on how they planned to carry forward the fight for the Empire.

You will need Adobe Reader to view the lesson plans. If you do not have Adobe Reader installed on your computer, you can download it, free of charge, for your Windows or Mac OS, from: Adobe Acrobat Reader
