Chronology
Chronological understanding involves sequencing, events, stories, pictures and periods over time to show how different times relate to each other and contribute to a coherent understanding of the past. You don’t necessarily have to teach topics in chronological order but you do need to relate the topics you teach to their chronological context. In this section you will find a range of articles and resources to support the development of chronological understanding, including schemes of work for teaching themes across time.
