History Intent
To inspire children to be curious and ask questions about the past, to develop a sense of chronology about key events in time and to think critically by weighing arguments from historical sources based on reason and evidence. The children at Springwood will make comparisons about then and now and explain why these events remain important.
Parent Open Classroom Event - Ancient Egypt
Parents were invited into school to explore their child's learning in History. The children shared their learning journey: the process of mummification, exploring historical sources and examining the findings of the tombs. Year 6 built upon their learning from Year 5, comparing other ancient civilisations, which overlapped at the time. Parents also played 'Mastermind' to test their own knowledge.
