QR codes can be used to support and extend learning in the primary classroom. In this KS2 history lesson, QR codes are used to inspire children in a quick and rather curious fashion.
Groups of pupils are given a collection of mystery artefacts to which QR codes have been attached. Each code directs children to a different digital resource – a website, question, audio clip, instruction etc, and they must use these clues to deduce what the artefact is and how it links to the history topic.
