Boolean Searching...

When I did a Google Scholar search for "history inquiry learning"+"primary school", using Boolean tools of " " and +, I got 633 hits, which I thought was pretty good, until I saw that most of them were NOT about history at all. mmm...
My second search for "history inquiry"+"primary school" got 19 results. The fourth site
Teaching history in the middle school: building knowledge through skills was an article written by Mallihai Tambyah, Faculty of Education, QUT. In it, Tambyah made reference to ACARA's statement on historical inquiry. Whilst this was interesting, it was something I was already familiar with.
