Year 3 Spring Term Curriculum Overview
Cave to Coliseum: Growing our children’s curiosity and historical awareness of Britain’s past and that of the wider world,
discovering life through the ages and challenges of their time.
From the depths of cave life to the grandeur of the coliseum, our children will embark on a historical journey of invasion,
settlement and life through the ages. Their time travel adventure will take discovery trips through Britain’s past with stops at
the Stone Age, Bronze Age and Iron Age with a final disembark at the Roman invasion. Through investigative and hands on
project work, our children will be inspired to ask questions about the past, developing their understanding and enquiry of past
life and change and the impact this has on their own identity.
As part of their time travel journey, our children will engage with Britain’s past through project work, exhibitions, report writing,
diary entries and the performing arts.
