Three Year 1 history lessons covering popular Key Stage 1 units: Toys Past and Present, Florence Nightingale and Mary Seacole, and The Moon Landing. Together they span the main strands of the KS1 history programme of study: changes within living memory, the lives of significant individuals, and events beyond living memory.
Each slide deck is built for presenting in class, with pictures, sources and talk prompts that help young pupils develop a sense of chronology and compare past and present. The lessons are aligned to the England National Curriculum, so the enquiry in each unit matches what Year 1 pupils are expected to explore.
Open any of these Year 1 history lessons in Chalkie to make them your own: add photographs of toys your pupils brought in, adjust the vocabulary, or regenerate slides to extend the unit. Editing takes minutes, which leaves more time for the storytelling that makes infant history memorable.
Pupils explore changes within living memory by comparing toys from the past with the toys children play with today.
