Why we Learn About History

Hello my readers today I will tell you why we learn about history this is why we learn about history. 

Studying history is important because it allows us to understand our past, which in turn allows us to understand our present. ... Studying history can provide us with insight into our cultures of origin as well as cultures with which we might be less familiar, thereby increasing cross-cultural awareness and understanding. 

Now I will tell you about the Treaty of Waitangi. It is New Zealand's founding document. It takes its name from the place in the Bay of Islands where it was first signed, on 6 February 1840. ... 

Now it is time to learn about voting. As early as the 1840s, some women began speaking out, arguing that women should have the right to vote.

Now about the War World War I began in 1914 after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand and lasted until 1918. 

And now World War II, also called Second World War, conflict that involved virtually every part of the world during the years.

And if I was a history teacher this is how I would teach history. A good starting point is to use historical fiction, trivia, puzzle games and artwork projects in class. There also are other creative methods that educators can use to excite students about history and bring the past to life.
