With the National Curriculum in mind, I have created a set of high-quality history lessons with tasks attached about the Victorian era. The National Curriculum puts forward that history education should help children gain a chronologically secure knowledge, understanding of Britain’s past and that of the wider world. It should also inspire children’s curiosity to know more about the past and empower them to be confident historians. Each Lesson Pack Contains: A Fully Editable PowerPoint (Learning Objectives, Variety of Tasks, Video Embedded URL Clips, Engaging Premium Quality Slides).
