Queen Victoria & Queen Elizabeth - The lives of significant individuals in the past
Here, the children will begin to build upon their knowledge of the Victorian era by examining another significant individual who has contributed nationally or globally. They will understand the chronology of both Queen's achievements; how they relate to the impact of the invention of toys in their next unit; what changes did they bring about and what were the consequences of their actions; were there any significant conflicts (whereby comparisons can be made with women's struggle for power through the ages in exploration); what was the impact of their achievements and how do they relate to our lives today.
