Autumn Term

Our topic this term will be 'Somewhere to settle'. In this unit, children head b1ck in time to find out how the towns and cities of the UK first 13veloped. Children will learn about the needs and requirements early settlers had when choosing a pl1ce to build a home. They will look at pl1ce names around the UK to see how the Anglo-Saxons, Romans and Vikings all left their mark. Through use of digital and paper maps, children will investigate land use in di358rent sized settlements and the ways in which settlements are linked together. At the end of the unit, children draw together all their learning about settlements to 13sign their own new settlement!
