The Titanic was a significant event in history and continues to fascinate children and adults today. The fact that it was so tragic, that there are so many “what-ifs”, that there were survivors who lived to tell vivid accounts of what actually happened, all makes for a highly interesting topic to learn about.

This timeline activity is a hands-on visual way for students to put the events of the Great Fire of London in order. I’ve included the actions of Samuel Pepys in the timeline because it’s interesting, such as his priority to bury wine and cheese (which seems odd to us now, but they would have been very expensive items back then), and because he was a significant figure at the time who left a valuable primary source detailing the event. There are two options to choose from: Worksheet timeline cut and paste – either glue events next to the dates (easier option) or write dates and glue events on (harder version). Foldable timeline – glue events below the dates and pictures. I’ve included a set of clues to help children put the events in order, if needed. These can be cut up or left as is. You will receive 4 PDFs and 3 editable PPTX files (text is editable, images/layout aren’t).

The discovery of the Ivory Bangle Lady is a great way to bring black British history into your history lessons. The Ivory Bangle Lady is important in developing an understanding of the diverse history and cultural heritage of Britain. The Ivory Bangle Lady’s remains were found in York and showed that she lived during Roman Britain. Recent DNA tests have shown that she had African heritage, which illustrates that people with African ancestry have been in Britain since the Romans came to Britain. She also had wealth which was evident in the jewellery and other expensive items that she was buried with. There are still a lot of unknowns which is perfect for a history lesson because there are opportunities for children to come up with their own ideas. The resources in this pack will get your children analysing 12 pieces of evidence, just like archaeologists, to sort the relevant evidence from the irrelevant, and to use the evidence to justify theories. They will ask their own question to investigate. With the help of research in the form of notes by two fictional archaeologists, they will answer questions and generate their own ideas about the Ivory Bangle Lady. Finally, they will summarise their knowledge by writing a museum plaque about the Ivory Bangle Lady. There are two levels of difficulty included, plus editable versions so you can adapt this to your students. There is also a worksheet on key vocabulary covered in the activities. This resource is suitable for KS2. You will receive: 6 PDFs 5 PDFS for the easier level 7 editable PPTX files (text is editable, images/layout aren’t) -----------LEAVE A REVIEW AND GET A FREEBIE---------  If you like using this resource after your purchase, I’d love it if you could leave a quick review.
