Year R had a look at a history box focusing on home life within living memory. The children were exposed to language such as ‘a long time ago’,  ‘in the past’,  ‘then’,  ‘today’ and  ‘now’. They were able to talk about what objects they recognise from their grandparents homes.

They enjoyed exploring them, asking questions on how they would be used and then matched each item with the correct image of an object they would see today in their homes.
