KS1 History: Castles includes Worksheets and Plans

Description

This is a short unit that supports your local history teaching. It introduces the children to the idea of using the built environment as a historical source, introduces the concepts of old and new, and encourages them to think about the changes in their local area over time. It provides a wide range of opportunities for children to develop their spoken language. It is helpful if the children have: experience of recalling stories about the past; sequenced events on a time line; used everyday words relating to the passing of time; used pictures to find out about the past
