YEAR 1

THE ROYAL T IMES

The girls have been developing their skills in history this year, learning how to use historical sources to gain an understanding of the lives of significant figures from the past who have contributed to national and international life. One of the people they learnt about was Queen Elizabeth. The girls began with a portrait of the Queen as a stimulus and following this they delved into the Queen’s past, finding out about the events in her life and ordering them into a timeline. Natalia Z

GROWING UP

When I was one I could see the sun.

When I was two I could find a newt.

When I was three I could play with my sisters. When I was four I could suck in water from a straw.

When I was five I could high five. Now I’m six I can play silly tricks! Beatrice C Lea E
