We are Historians

Friday 16 January 2026

This half term our Topic is History. We are learning all about toys from the past.

First we learnt about timelines. We learnt that some things happened a very long time ago. The past means something has already happened. This could be 5 years ago or 5 minutes ago. We ordered events from our lives using a timeline. Some of our timelines looked a bit different to others!

Some children have already lost a tooth whereas others have not lost one yet. Some children have learnt to ride a bike, others have not yet learnt.

 

We also brought our favourite toys into school. We had so much fun playing with them and explaining why we love them so much.

Each class has also been looking at toys from the past. We know some toys look older than others because of the materials they were made from or their condition. Some toys look dusty, rusty and full of scratches whereas others look shiny, colourful and in better condition.
