Year 4 Topic Autumn Term

 
Our Year 4 Topic for the second half of the Autumn Term is
Children of the Revolution (Victorians).
We will continue this topic after Christmas as it has been such a busy time.
 
This project has a history focus and teaches children about the
Victorian era including the lives of the rich and poor and other
significant social and moral changes of the 19th century. The
