History

We are starting a new topic in History called 'Family Album' so we will be looking at how things have changed over time. Have a look at the 'Growing up' power point.

Talk to a grown up about these questions:

• Are you older or younger than when you started school?
• Will you be older or younger on your next birthday?
• When were you born?
• When is your birthday?
• How do you celebrate birthdays?

With an adult, see if you can research some information about the past:

• How have toys and games changed over time?
• How did they celebrate birthdays in the past? (More than 80 years ago). 
• What toys do you play with today?
• What toys do you think children played with in the past?
• How are these toys different to the toys you play with now?

Can you write 3 sentences to explain what you have found out. Try to use some super conjunctions to extend your sentences!

*Next week, we will be learning about family trees. Please talk to your child about your family and look at and discuss any pictures you have.*
