Module 1
When was the Stone Age:
In our first lesson this term we looked at what a time period is how we can show the progress of a time period using a timeline. We then focused on our the Stone Age time period and map it out on a timeline.
NC: Pupils should continue to develop a chronologically secure knowledge and understanding of British, local and world history, establishing clear narratives within and across the periods they study.
What was life like during the Palaeolithic (Early Stone Age) time period?
During this lesson, we explored how people lived during the Palaeolithic time period. We looked at different pictures of artefacts and discussed how these would have been used during their time period. We then made predictions of people lives and how they lived through these pictures and artefacts.
NC: changes in Britain from the Stone Age to the Iron Age.
How did life change from Early to Middle Stone Age?
Within this lesson, we studied what life was like within the middle period of the Stone Age, Mesolithic. We looked at pictures of how and where humans lived and then compared them with each other.
NC: changes in Britain from the Stone Age to the Iron Age
Hunters and Gathers
During this lesson, we have learnt about what different types of food were consumed during the Palaeolithic and Mesolithic time periods. We then had to compare them to each other to see how this changed over time. After this we learnt how they found the food, by hunting animals and gathering different foliage.
NC: changes in Britain from the Stone Age to the Iron Age
Neolithic Period
Today, we started to look at the late time period of the Stone Age (Neolithic) and begame to compare it to the Mesolithic and Palaeolithic (Middle and Early time period). We used our interpruption and chronoligical skills to help make sure we stayed in chronoligcal order and made plausable prediction about what life would have been like from using some primary and secondary resources.
NC: changes in Britain from the Stone Age to the Iron Age

Module 3
Isaac newton
In our History lesson for this term, we have looked at the famous scientist Isaac Newton. We came up with different questions about him as a class and then used our research skills to find out the answers for them. We then create a "ChatterPix" of Isaac Newton tell people about his life.
NC: They should regularly address and sometimes devise historically valid questions about change, cause, similarity and difference, and significance. They should construct informed responses that involve thoughtful selection and organisation of relevant historical information.
Module 4
History of Medicine
In our History lesson for this term, we have looked at how medicine has evolved from plants. We looked at the first remedies and that were being used and then how plants are still being used now to help support health and living.
NC: They should regularly address and sometimes devise historically valid questions about change, cause, similarity and difference, and significance. They should construct informed responses that involve thoughtful selection and organisation of relevant historical information.
Module 5
History of Light
In our History lesson for this term, we have looked at how light has changed over time. We looked at how light was first used and when major developments happen during over the course of history.
NC: Pupils should continue to develop a chronologically secure knowledge and understanding of British, local and world history, establishing clear narratives within and across the periods they study. They should note connections, contrasts and trends over time and develop the appropriate use of historical terms.
