Discover!
Our focus subjects which feed into the 'Discover' theme are History and DT. In History, the children will be exploring past events. They will be investigating aspects of the past through historical as well as art and technological skills. They will be learning to recognise why people did things, why events happened and what happened as a result. They will also learn how to identify differences between ways of life at different times and begin to understand and use historical vocabulary. We will begin by looking at life in 1666, with a focus on The Great Fire of London. In Design and Techology, we will be planning, making and evaluating Tutor house. We will also be making bread and other means from the time with in Food Technology. We will try to answer our discovery question -Did more good things or bad things come out of the Great Fire of London?
