UK SoW: Primary History Unit 18 (Year 3/4)
http://www.standards.dfee.gov.uk/schemes/history/his18?version=1 What was it like to live here in the past? In this unit, children are introduced to an enquiry-based approach to a local study. It is best to focus on an aspect of the local community in the immediate locality. It might also be part of a field visit, particularly a residential field trip. Children compare two or three periods of time. A house or group of houses, a shopping street, the school, a workplace, a place of worship, civic or service buildings, or an historic site such as a local castle could be selected as the focus of the unit. It gives opportunity for direct access to historical sources and is an excellent chance to develop fieldwork and research skills. The unit also provides an opportunity to consider citizenship issues such as planning for change, conservation, local identity and social responsibility. |
