Objectives

History

  • Continue to develop a chronologically secure knowledge and understanding of Britain, local and world history, establishing clear narratives within and across the periods they study.
  • Conduct a local history study of an aspect of history from a period beyond 1066 that is significant to the local area.
  • Understand how our knowledge of the past is constructed from a range of sources.

Geography

  • Use fieldwork to observe, measure, record and present the human and physical features in the local area using a range of methods.

Lesson Planning

Children compare the local area to old maps and images in order to understand changes since Victorian times.

Children will:

  • Use fieldwork techniques combined with looking at maps and photos to compare a street to one 150 years ago.
  • Investigate differences in the local area by visiting a particular street and looking at old photos.
