Year 1 – History

Year 1 History – Ourselves 

Year 1 have really enjoyed learning about ‘Ourselves’ in history this half term. We have looked at pictures of ourselves as babies, toddles, and now, and discussed the differences and changes we have noticed as we have grown up. We have learned the concept of ‘the past’ and we know that things in the past have already happened. We have thought about things that we did in the past (as babies and toddlers) and compared them with the things that we can do now. We also spent some time looking through catalogues at different toys and discussed what sorts of toys we might have played with in the past, and how they are different to the toys we play with now. Finally, we used a timeline to sequence pictures of ourselves from the past to now and matched up toys that we might have played with at each stage in our lives.
