Themes and concepts

According to the National Curriculum, children in Key Stage 1 should: 

Develop an awareness of the past, using common words and phrases relating to the passing of time. They should know where the people and events they study fit within a chronological framework and identify similarities and differences between ways of life in different periods. They should use a wide vocabulary of everyday historical terms. They should ask and answer questions, choosing and using parts of stories and other sources to show that they know and understand key features of events. They should understand some of the ways in which we find out about the past and identify different ways in which it is represented.

In this area you'll find resources to support the development of some of the main themes and concepts relating to history such as chronology, changes over time, similarity and difference. We'll add further resources to support this area as they are submitted.
